[Caesar dude]

I had seen your post Milnie and was going to steal his thunder....but I knew he would do it so much better than me!

Good to see you all again dudes!

Peace

[Hominid]

It's our pleasure Caesar dude!

it's a hologram of the dudeist yin yang. but not a full 3d hologram - a 2d hologram. basically it looks different as you change the angle of the light source but it's a more "flat" look than the typical credit card hologram. those cost thousands of dollars to develop.

just moved to a new house and the printing stuff is in boxes. trying to settle on a final design. but very very close to being able to put these into production.

[Father Dude]

I'm on board for sure man.

[Easy McRider]

So these cards... will we need to find an ATM?

[This Dude Abides]

Figures I just ordered my ordination kit, but I'll buy one of those separate when they're available. 

[LotsaBadKarma]

I'm in! I haven't read the entire thread, when/where will these be available?

[Easy McRider]

Yep indeed dudes, an abide card would be good. When and where from?

[RevKHyler]

Definitely gotta have one of these cards, looking forward to seeing them listed.

*bump* :-p
I would love to get an ID card but I fear our leader is taking it a little too easy to get this done.  LOL

Oh, no, that sounds exhausting. I was thinking a good-sized magazine article. 3,000 to 5,000 words. And not written in dry scholarly style, but rather something that anyone would be stoked to read. The point would be to get a broad repository of Dudeist articles to present to the public.

I guess we should automatically give out Ph.Ds to contributors to Lebowski 101 (www.dudeism.com/Lebowski-101)! That's pretty much the criteria for submissions to that book.

But we'd also have people working on the Wiki who could probably earn their degree if they contribute substantially to that I guess.

Any ideas or input is more than welcome. I've been ruminating about it for a while.

One thing that would be an important part of Abide University would be an Abidance Counseling program to try and come up with a basic skill set for helping counsel people in a therapeutic sense. Maybe gather some proven techniques (like neurolingustic programming, cognitive therapy, deep relaxation techniques, life management skills, etc. No Freudian or Jungian mystic stuff, just good practical help) and put together a training course. I have an idea for a way to match up Abidance Counselors with "patients." Not sure if it should be totally free or if there should be a way for Abidance Counselors to earn some monkey food for it.

Hey Forumdude,

I have a phd in clinical psychology and often work from a (subliminally) dudeist perspective with my anxious, overly Walter, or perfectionistic patients.

If the Abide counseling idea still appeals to you, please be in touch and I'll help anyway I can.
