variables will persist through  every connection...

so 'use strict()' and specifically declare every variable with my /  
our as appropriate

ie:

my $connected= 0;
sub connect {
	my $connection= 'dbi connection';
	$connected++;
	return $connection
}
sub handler{
	my $r= shift
	if ( ! $connection ) {
		$connection= connect()
	}
	print $connected;
}

the first time you run that, you'll call connect and increment  
connected,  which is local to the package.  the second time though,  
$connection will have been set within the handler block

and then everything that David Nicol said
