Introduction and Advice

[Jake Tingley]

Hello

My name is Jake and I live in Warner.  I am a high school math teacher in Lebanon and I am interested in working with Linux and doing some programming.

What is the best way to get started?
Is there a particular distribution I should be looking at?
What is a good first language to learn?
What do people think are good resources (both online and books)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,

Jake
