I've tried a lot of different languages over the years including Ruby, Go, Scala, and Haskell.
Ruby actually isn't too bad if you don't use Rails. Between Rails and stuff like Spring over in Java-land I've developed a strong hatred of huge frameworks :)
Clojure, however, is the one language that just 'clicked' for me almost immediately. In fact, I'm pretty certain I'll be sticking to Lisps as much as possible from here on out. That is, when I have the choice: I work in a Java shop during the day like everyone else :O
