Nit: Halfway to somewhere, but that somewhere ain't Lisp.
I'm under-rested and under-caffeinated, but the only thing I can think of that I'd call an intentional similarity between the two languages is the fact they're both garbage collected.

The Java language itself, however, is not very close to Lisp at all.
