Welcome to the party, mang!
I agree with all three.
I would also add Tommy Chong.

Good choice there dude!
Welcome to the party! Smoke em if you got em! 8)
Eyup, Dudes (trad. greeting from these here parts). Just been turned on to this board via another.
Suggestions for Dudes?
Kinky Friedman - Writer, C&W singer both guest at Whitehouse and reviled by the Right, smoker outcast and bourbon imbiber on grand scale. Good music - with critical yet amusing lyrics - and excellent series of fiction stories, with himself as a fictional private eye in very Dude situations!
Oddball - Understated hero of Kelly's Heroes, Oddball is the one hippy in history who could drive a Sherman tank while giving out positive vibes! How dude is that?

Worthy fuckin' dudes all!
Thankee Stormkhan dude! Welcome to our nice quiet beach community.
You are in the right place dude! 8)
Eyup, lad Dude, is it still grim oop North? Welcome. I second (or third) Kinky - have read a couple of his novels and used to have an album of his; not sure if it's still kicking about. Like the Oddball suggestion, too.
Definitely Oddball!

Kelly's Heroes...great flick, by the way.
See the thing I don't understand is are we like the Mormons who baptise people into their religion after they have died (which is why they have such good records for finding your family tree).
Do we assign people as Dudeist without them knowing?
Oddball is the only one I know of, the rest I can't say. But as much as the dude was dude-like in TBL, Oddball was a dude for sure in Kelly's Heroes.
M5, not sure what you mean where you say "without them knowing?"

...M5, not sure what you mean where you say "without them knowing?"
I was wondering if we should actually ask them if they want to take on the title?
I know it's a bit evangelical (which I've stood against before).
That's the real ones I mean.
Or are we only presenting them as examples?
Douglas Adams, the Beloved
So long and thanks for all the fish.
My nomination for Dude is Darnell Turner, aka Crabman from the tv show, My Name Is Earl.

Lot of ins...lot of outs to that one dude. Like that idea. Maybe send a "Dude Award" notification or something to the nominee? That would be for Real dudes, not just some actor playing a dude...right? Guess they should be real living dudes so they can accept the nomination?
Maybe we should have a special place to keep the Dude Award Winners?
Yeah, a lot of ins...a lot of outs...
Anyone else?

How about a section in the http://dudeism.com/ called "The Hall of Great Dudes." Would include a picture of the dude nominated and confirmed, some notes on the dude's dudely like background and some kind of "Great Dude in History" seal and logo?
that's a fucking great idea. way to go digitalbuddahy!
now that's fucking interesting man. if we contacted great dudes and told them they were awarded it, maybe they could help spread the word of dudeism since most of them are well known and pull a lot of water in their beach communities and what have you.
we should have little trophies made up and mail them to their publicists.

Thanks ForumDude; a few oat sodas and my mind gets a bit limber. ;D And a trophy would very dude like too. Fucking eh. Also, maybe a "Great Dude in History" Time Magazine mirror?
Well, that was kinda the idea behind The Duders - I have kinda, sorta let it slide but I feel the nominations stand (Graham Hancock oughta get something). The categories need a little more tuning, all suggestions welcome: http://dudeism.com/smf/index.php?topic=1548.0 (http://dudeism.com/smf/index.php?topic=1548.0)

Wow, how did we forget that topic? Yeah, it really ties both these threads together doesn't it. 8)
Ok, need the design of the award?

Why not design it like the Time Magazine Mirror but just have it read "A Great Dude" or maybe "A Worthy Fuckin' Dude!"?
Also dudes, it's just like my opinion, but I don't think "Great" and Dude should be put together. I believe Worthy is a more acceptable nomenclature...am I wrong? 8)

How about a dude would be given the title of "Worthy Dude" while still with us, and when he or she joins the dudely departed, is then given the title of "Great Dude," or "Great Dude in History."
