Kevin gets his Father Of The Year Award early this year for saving Halloween.\ We bought beautiful pumpkins to make jack-o-lanterns, but wanted them to be fresh for Halloween so we waited until Saturday to carve them. Only by then they were rotten! 🙁 Kevin went out in search of new, unrotten pumpkins but he […]
“During my lifetime I have seen a significant deterioration in the respect accorded to religion in our public life, and I believe that the vitality of religious freedom is in danger of being weakened accordingly,” Oaks said. “Atheists and others would intimidate persons with religious-based points of view from influencing or making the laws of […]
We were on Morning Edition today! You can read the transcript or listen to the story on the site. It’s very exciting, and the story’s great too. I think the artist they interviewed has a pretty typical reaction when people first hear about what we do. The comments on the article, too, are fairly typical.\ […]
It’s a big weekend for Max. He got his yellow belt last night, and it’s his 10th birthday on Sunday! Check out all the pics in the set on Flickr\ Also, my first blog post for The South is up! They asked real nice, and I’ll be posting geeky bits there every couple of weeks.

All of my complaints are sort of minor, but things I find annoying.\ I’ll just refer you to the post below to see my traffic-jam rant.\ The clubs have switched times from after school to the last 45 minutes of school. […]
Max has started reading this blog (hi, Max!) so I need to stop with the adult or subversive posts. I’m not sure what else there is to write, ha. I haven’t been feeling ranty lately which is a good thing given my new posting restrictions. The Hofstra case really has me irked though. Max has […]
Max’s Blue Man Group Audition from Kevin Lawver on Vimeo. The boys and I went to Atlanta last weekend to hang out with my pal David and go to the Georgia Aquarium. We stayed in a hotel right downtown, went to the Children’s Museum, ate at Legal Seafood, went swimming, watched a movie and had […]
Brian’s favorite thing in the whole world to play with is “finger friends.” Those are the little people that are made when you make a walking motion with your hand, making your fingers act as the moving legs. Get it? Luckily, Brian can take his finger friends with him where ever he goes. Even though […]
(Exciting title, right?)\ Last week in Virginia, I burned the tip of my index finger while making a craft with a hot glue gun. It became a normal blister, with a squooshy, liquidy middle. It hurt immediately, so I stuck ice on it all night. By the next morning, it stopped throbbing but would hurt […]
