Ruby. My favorite language is Python and I really like Django but I think I'm missing something by not learning Ruby and Rails. Haskell is the other language I want to learn, and probably more than Ruby but I'm currently looking for a job and RoR is the better choice...

Ruby and Rails are largely independent entities (in my opinion)

Learn Ruby first, Rails is a huge framework to start out ruby programming with.
