This looks like a problem more for the beginners list than the fwp list.
With that said, you can create several different statement handles outside
of the while loop and use placeholders (one of the things I LOVE about DBI
and Perl).

Someone's gonna explain these, right? Man, I love learning this kinda stuff.

I don't have the rules with me (I'm at work now), but I thought that there

So if the word was:
bane
it would pass this program (if it was on an even line), but not the rules
since there's an odd # of a's and e's (again, as I
Personally, it looks like a 'fox' to me - pointy ears & bushy tail.
