Or env :)

Wrong way:

PERL=`which perl`
$PERL stuff

Better way:

/usr/bin/env perl stuff

So in your scripts:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

or 

#!/usr/bin/env python

This is especially useful for folks using Python since we often have three or four different versions of the interpreter installed, much less the dozens of development environments to reflect the diaspora of servers our code will end up living in >.<
