Welcome to the Chucko zone!

You'll find I'm a serious gearhead, a car fanatic, and I bleed Ford blue! I founded the Fordnatics mailing list. I am a former (and future) member of the Northern California Shelby Club.

I am also a big fan of all kinds of auto racing , but Indy cars, Champ cars, and especially sprint cars are my favorites!

I also play music for fun. Currently I'm between bands. I used to be a member of Ruthie and the Gents, a blues and classic rock band in San Jose, CA.

Another of my hobbies is photography. For examples, check out my photos of Mike Keneally and Beer For Dolphins, a vacation in the southwestern US, and my Carvin guitar and bass collection.

I'm a software engineer by day. My first choice in languages is Lisp. (Common Lisp rules!) I also do C++ programming when I have to, which unfortunately is most of the time. (C++ sucks!) Currently I work for QSS Group Inc. at the Intelligent Systems division of NASA Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California, USA.

Ruth and me in our wedding best

On October 14, 1995, I married the former Ruth Colby, in a ceremony in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. We live in Sunnyvale with our cat, Designer Kitty. (We used to have three, but Norton passed away in 2002 and Cici in 2003. God rest their furry souls.)

Here's another scene from the wedding, showing my immediate family. Left to right: brothers Doug and Ken, sister Laura Hambrick, Mom (Dale) and Dad (Frank) Fry, me, and kid brother John.
