In recent years, Catholics started recognizing those men who have responded to the call to priesthood. Priesthood Sunday is a simple way for us to reflect and be thankful for these gentlemen who have done so much to make our world a better place.
Most Catholic priests will never be famous. Most won’t make much of [...]

Alright, I know Nadya Suleman has done some things that warranted national attention, but does that mean that we now have to hear every little detail about her life? And how long does this need to go on?
I heard last week that she got a tatoo. And now this morning, one of her kids has [...]

So check out what happened when my youngest daughter, Randy (15), and I were out raking in the front yard this afternoon. The kids are still on a mini-Easter break through today, so we had to get the lawn raked.
My truck was parked in the street in front of my house. We live two houses [...]

As a founding member of the GQ4 Barbershop Quartet, I spent the last eight Valentine’s Days (and nights) away from home, as we toured northeast Wisconsin delivering Singing Valentines. The four of us had a ton of fun doing it, but it always meant that we were away from our wives and families on this [...]

My daughter, Randy, and I built our duct tape camper two months ago. It was a fun little project that we worked on together. We took it camping and had a lot of fun. Of course a duct tape camper gets a bit of attention in any campground, so we enjoyed showing it off to [...]

Had a busy weekend. I suppose the main thing I did was work on my duct tape camper. Yep, you read that right. My daughter and I are making a camper out of duct tape. And we’re going camping with it next weekend. No photos today, but not to worry, photos and videos are coming.

If you’re like me, you receive several e-mails every week from some friend or relative plugging some cause and including a call to action like, “make your voice heard, forward this e-mail to everyone you know”.
Most such messages I receive are about U.S. immigration policies. But I also receive messages like, “put Christ back in [...]

We’re heading into the Christmas weekend, and the Crevier family will be busy again. One day with my sister-in-law in Iron Mountain, MI, Christmas Eve at my Mom’s house in Green Bay, Christmas morning here at home with the girls then over to my Mom’s house again, and the day after Christmas at my aunt [...]

Well, another Thanksgiving holiday is in the books. Tricia puts on a very nice Thanksgiving dinner here at our house every year. I made the mashed potatoes and carved the turkey, but the whole event is pretty much Tricia’s creation.
This year was cool because the Packers also played (yes, they beat the Lions 37-26). So, [...]

I make my living on the internet. I’ve been doing so since 1995. I believe deeply in the power of the internet; it’s by far the most powerful medium in the history of the world. But it has its dangers. So, how do I respond when people ask, “Scott, how do you protect your kids [...]

Had the most interesting Flag Day of my life today. As “holidays” go, Flag Day is pretty tame. But every year, I put my flag out on June 14 to show respect for this great symbol of our country and its history. This year, I actually did something.
This story starts back on a spring day [...]

My wife and I celebrated 20 years of marriage last week. It was actually pretty low key, but we did manage to go out to dinner together, just the two of us.
What’s even more cool is that we played racquetball this week. You know when you have those times when you’re doing something nice or [...]
