Ruby took the best parts of Perl and got rid of the worst. Give it a shot :)

I actually switched to Ruby for this very reason and used it for a few years. I still have a soft spot for Ruby as well.

Unfortunately I had a different experience with the Ruby community, so I eventually switched to Python along with apparently everybody else.
