[Perl]Random Quote IRC Bot

[shadow-xx]

First try at perl

Took some time to make this
because i never done perl before..
had some troubles with the array's
i automatically used the arrays like
im used to in php

but then i figured out arrays are used
with a @ in perl:P

V-Good. Continue learning perl. It's very good and underground language.
