I am in the same camp with how you feel about Python and R. I am oddly
drawn to J for the syntax and challenge of learning something very
different than my day to day. The community is really engaging and has a
depth to it. The documentation, wiki and history is vast.

P.s. I also liked the music. It helped keep my attention up since there was
no other sound.
