I have honestly tried many many times to read books/tutorials for getting started in LISP. I know there are many LISP inspired languages and Clojure is one of them. Where LISP throws me off is the excessive use of parenthesis, up-to the point my mind can't keep track of them anymore and IMHO language uses it's comprehension abilities. I am still struggling and pushing hard to learn it; hopefully I can get over it and experience the most powerful language. Any good starting projects/ideas I should try doing in LISP/Clojure etc. to help me out?
