   Learn python.  It is not the perfect language (hint: there isn't   
   one!), but it is easy to learn from either the standard tutorial or   
   dive into python http://www.diveintopython.org/ and it is a great tool   
   to have in your box.   
      
   The aima website http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/ links to python code   
   http://code.google.com/p/aima-python/   
      
   With your python skills ready Programming Collective Intelligence is a   
   super practical read http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596529321   
      
   PAIP http://norvig.com/paip.html is an excellent book, he introduces   
   Common Lisp in chapter one.  If you want to go deeper into CL check   
   out PCL http://gigamonkeys.com/book/ and On Lisp http://www.paul
