Stacy and I have been married since December 30, 1995 and are +having many wonderful adventures raising our four sons, Cameron, +Hyrum, Andrew, and Scott. One defining aspect of our family life is +our membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints +([lds.org](http://lds.org)). Another essential aspect of our family +life is play. The [[LEGO]] system is a favorite toy of all the boys in +the family, and we're starting to put together a decent collection of +favorite [[games]]. We also love wrestling together and doing pretty +much anything to make each other laugh. + +# Software + +Since about the age of 10, (think BASIC on an Apple ][e), I've found +myself wanting to program computers more often than time generally +allows. I feel very fortunate that so much [Free +Software](http://www.fsf.org/licensing/essays/free-sw.html) exists +that I can very often find that someone else has already written the +programs that I would like to write if I had the time, (and I'm given +the freedom to adapt the software to my exact desires). I'm also very +fortunate to work for [Red Hat](http://www.redhat.com) which gives me +the opportunity to write Free Software as a full-time job. + +[[img cairo-logo.png alt="Cairo logo" class="left"]] The single +software project that I've spent the most time on is the [cairo +graphics library](http://cairographics.org) which has been a +tremendous amount of fun, but it's really only interesting for other +programmers. Non-programmers might be interested in some of the other +games and toys that I've written. I share all my programs as Free +Software and I'll put more information about obtaining those programs +here soon, (please pester me if you're interested in something I've +written and cannot find it). + +# Other things + +I enjoy doing origami, and I've recently started studying word lists +suitable for games like SCRABBLE, (though, oddly enough, I very rarely +play any such games). I've also recently started running for exercise, +and I'm thinking of taking up indoor rock-climbing. + +I have some older pages of information [about +myself](http://cworth.org/~cworth) which I still need to completely +migrate to a new location. The most significant information on the old +web pages is the collection of [papers and +talks](http://cworth.org/~cworth/papers/) that I have given. + +I may be reached by email to cworth@cworth.org (shocking, isn't +it?).
