I envy you taking up your first language, if it is
indeed your first. I've worked in about a half dozen
languages, and would now argue against Perl. If it's
your first language, consider checking out Python:
http://www.python.com/. I work in it almost exclusively
now.

Consider PostgreSQL instead of MySQL (unless you don't
find the lack of transactions in MySQL a hindrance).
