I do this:

sub goofy_j {
   my $sql = <<EOT;
SELECT Foo
FROM Bar
WHERE Foo IS NOT NULL
EOT
   return $sql;
}

I guess I like having blocks of stuff that's not Perl in column 1. I think my eye sees "not Perl" faster that way.

EOT instead of EOF cause it's always the end of some Text, not the end of the File.  :)
