We should develop a ceremony for April 20 (420) and make it a Dudeist holiday

[Dude1967]

               It is a red convertible.  The driver, singing loudly and
               badly along with the radio, her hair blowing in the wind, a
               dreamy smile on her face as she speeds along, higher than a
               kite, is Bunny Lebowski.

               THE FOOTWELL

               On the accelerator her right foot, in an open-toed bright
               red high-heeled shoe, has five painted toes.

               When she downshifts her left foot enters to engage the clutch.

               Five more toes.

You think it was the carpet pissers?

Well dude, we just don't know.

Ze Big Lebowski Holiday would be very cool!

For me, Lebowski Fest would be enough!

I'm glad the arch bishop made a reference her man, because I was previously unaware and like a child who wanders in in the middle of a movie and wants to know...

so it seems like The Day of the Dude is set for March 6th, but any ideas for some basic celebration themes or what-have-you?

This year, March 6th falls on a Friday (far out!), and the Dudes of Nevada will be throwing some type of celebration at the University of Nevada Reno campus on that day.

I have to submit a budget request for the event on Monday Feb 2. It will likely be a BBQ, with some music, maybe some games (lawn mini-bowling), maybe dudeist henna tattoos and probably a showing of the film. Unfortunately it will have to be alcohol free, but we'll still have some good sarsaparilla. Any other solid ideas I can include in the budget?

Anyone want to come to Reno that weekend and party with us?

Should I start a new forum topic for this? What category would I want to put it in because this is clearly not a wedding ceremony.

How about a simulation, a cycle if you will, of camel fuckers trying to find reverse on a russian tank....that's just like my opinion, man.

This is such a bummer man. I was gonna come here and suggest an international "Day of the Dude" and call it "Dude'sday" 

Just before I could do so, I stumbled over this board on the floor. The Dude works in mysterious ways.

I propose Aug. 6 as the Dude'sday. I believe that may be the first day of the film. I will of course honor 3/6 as well as 4/20, and any other day that I deem dudely. Dude deserves more than one day, anyway. (Doesn't Ned Flanders always say dudely? He's a regular Charlie Church.)

3/6/1998, in numerology that's 3/6/9, not bad, but I think that I can do better.

L8or G8ors.

Any suggestions?

April is a very cool month, especially mid-April.

Hey Champagne dude, welcome to our nice pad we got here and general dudetopian hang out. Good to have you here, mang! Grab a rug and abide, dude!

only problem is that it's already a holiday. can we co-opt a preexisting holiday? i guess the christians did it with the roman saturnalia (it's now called christmas).

the only other dates mentioned are september 11th (on the check dude writes at ralph's) and september 9th (marty: "tomorrow's already the tenth, dude." dude: "far out."). can't have a holiday on 9/11 any more. 9/9 might be okay. the movie seems to start on sept 7th or 8th.

which makes me think - someone needs to sketch out the exact chronology of the film - over how many days does the movie take place - when does it start and when does it end?

has anyone done that already?

parla usted ingles?

coitus?

4/20 is already a holiday? Dude,I was not aware of that!
I know 4/20 is Hitlers birthday...

Dude....look up 420 on the internet!
Smoke em if you got em!

The 10th of each month could be a day of accounting, in which we take stock of our dirty undies from the past month, and forgive and apologize.

[BikerDude]

Everyday is a holiday for the Dude in all of us.
