I guess the other question is, "What do you want to accomplish with 
this new distro?"  If it's just to play around with something new, 
almost anything will work.  If you want to learn how things interact at 
a lower level than usual, LFS or Arch or Gentoo will give you that.  If 
you want to have a pretty good desktop with lots of stuff supported out 
of the box, Mint has gotten a lot of good press.

The "How to install Gentoo" documentation is long, but don't let that 
put you off.  It's mostly "Boot from CD or USB key.  Run command 1.  Run 
command 2. .... Run command 255.  You're done!" all spelled out 
explicitly.  Waiting for KDE or GNOME to finish compiling is the only 
difficult part :-)
