Django - deploy a web app that demo's our web services - I already have a Java servlet but I want to add a couple of examples that use 21st Century frameworks :)

Grails - same as above - some of the guys in my shop are using this as a transitional technology since we're a Java shop. Looks pretty cool so far. Probably do one in Django/Python, then one in Grails.

Ruby - have done a tutorial but need to write some real apps

Android - have written about a dozen internal apps plus a library (abstract class derived from Activity). I want to write a couple of my own apps to put on the Market, unrelated to work stuff. With a million apps out there, it's hardly likely to even be noticed, but that's OK, just to have an app out there is kind of essential if you want to be taken seriously.

I'd like to understand more about full-stack javascript apps; it seems like a lot of people are using it to write pretty sophisticated apps these days.
