Hopefully I can make it.

The "...Made Easy" talk was his keynote at OSCON this year.  It's good,
but is more of a humorous talk for general geek audiences.  Of course,
he demonstrates two bits of crazy Perl in the process of entertaining.
I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it.

"The Twilight Perl" is excellent.  It contains a lot of crazy Perl
tricks that could only come from the evil mind of Damian.  However, it's
really just one Perl trick after another, which are fun, but there's no
story, as it were.
