In my completely biased opinion: Perl.
- Its' everywhere.
- It can do anything.
- It's fast.
- There are lots of people out there who can help you.
- That thing you need to do: someone's probably already done it for you
(probably Jared).
- It's a great language that doesn't stand in the way of clear thinking.
- It's a living language that keeps improving with every release.
