Beautiful Ruby: Learning the -isms

I did PHP for 6 years.... sometimes its hard not to do PHP in ruby...
Today i was testing a url to see if it contains a certain string:
PLAIN TEXT
RUBY:

response = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse("http://myawesomesite")

if response.body.match("my awesome text") == nil  then

      return false

end

and remember to do:
PLAIN TEXT
RUBY:

response = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse("http://myawesomesite")

return "false" if response.body.match("my awesome text").nil?

Another thing [...]
