Effective Java (Score:2)

I think you'll find that this is suitably frowned upon in Josh Bloch's Effective Java [infoq.com]. If you don't have a copy around, I'd really recommend picking up a copy if you're going to be coding Java at all.
You might also like his Java Puzzlers [javapuzzlers.com], which is entertaining if less essential reading.
And why not look into Scala [scala-lang.org] whilst you're on the JVM? I find it very Perlish in many ways. :)
