Doing the right thing, whatever the cost. That, and a pair of testicles.
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?

Hey, if the Christians could co-opt Saturnalia and Oester from the pagans (as Bill Hicks once said: there are no bunnies or Easter eggs mentioned in the Bible...pagan symbols, Dude), we can co-opt 420.
Besides, everyone will be too stoned to care...

September 9th might not be allowed.
I think that the "man" would have a problem with having a holiday about relaxing and taking er easy two days before 9/11.
We could co-opt 4/20 but it seems a little too cliche.
I'm getting a hold of Jeff Bridges. He'll know what to do.

That makes a lot of sense. So obvious, too.
I second...
I would also like to second the use of Dec 4 (Jeff Bridges' Birthday) as an official holiday in addition to March 6. I mean, why limit ourselves to one holiday? Am I wrong?

I agree. Sorta the Dudeist seasonal equivalent of Christmas and Easter.
"Day of the Dude" Indeed! Instead of saying "brains!" we could wander the streets saying "rug!" Or "another caucasian, gary!" or something...
Arggh Nihilists Arggh
I like it better with the "The" in front... The Day of the Dude...
but thats just, like, my opinion.
I don't think we should celebrate Jeff Bridges bday, he played the part well,
but the Dude is the Dude, and Jeff Bridges is Jeff Bridges, 2 separate characters..
people...what have you...
If anything, we should celebrate the bdays of the Coen bros, who created the Dude.
They tenderly birthed the Dude themselves and raised this brainchild to make him what he is
today....The Dude.
But honestly, what is a holiday but an excuse not to go to work and to get stinkin drunk so I say....
make as many holidays as you can....and goshdarnit, we must be allowed to drink in public! None of this bush league psych out shit, none of this fascist shit, oat sodas out in the open baby, you got a date on Wednesday baby!
(Afterthought, maybe make every Wednesday ....and also Saturday (Shabbos) Dudeist holidays too.)

Fuckin' A..."Day of the Dude" really tied the life together or really tied the year togheter or really tied the calendar together.
Many activities will be scheduled, burning a car, smashing a corvette, bowling, smoking things, drinking things, uh....maybe a performance at a venue, some showing of vaginal art, and of course a big party on the beach with naked chicks and trampolines....hmm....what else?
Of course no true Dudeist would ever neglect Shabbos as a day off...
I prefer "the tenth already" , of any month, and celebrate by providing oat sodas, caucasians, and J's to all the little Lebowski urban achievers without the necessary means the necessary means to abide themselves. And also designate Nancy Reagan..when she was first lady, as the anti Dude. say what you will about 'just say no" at least it's an ethos. Just say fuck it and go bowling. But like that's just my opinion, man
Major Holiday: The Day of the Dude 6 Mar
Minor Holidays: The 10th Already -every month
4 Dec -Jeff Bridges B'Day
Shabbos

Also, we SHOULD have a holiday on Sept 11, call it "Aggression Will Not Stand Day".

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.

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.
Everyday is a holiday for the Dude in all of us.
I'm still in favour of appling the Erisian principle whenit comes to Holy days and Holiday's we as a group don't hold holidays but you as an individual can declare any day you want a holy day and your employer can't argue about it, it being in direct line with the principles of chaos that Irisians recognise in all things.

Whilst all chanting "Shut the fuck up Donny!"
See I think "Shut the fuck up Donny!" should be the reply from the congregation in all Dudeist ceremonies (yes I know I am against formalising anything but WTF).
I am for some formalizing of some stuff, and I dig the "shut the fuck Donny" idea.
I still say Dudeism is uniquely situated to have a dimension of organisation, while still being able to recognize it as utter bullshit and just for fun and games.
It should be intoned like it's a serious reply for best effect.
Like it's a serious Catholic thing, or like Gregorian Chant (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dlr90NLDp-0).
In fact you could use it like a Buddhist chant as well (just sit crossed legged and repeat it continually).
"Shut the fuck up Donny!"
"Shut the fuck up Donny!"
"Shut the fuck up Donny!"
"Shut the fuck up Donny!"
"Shut the fuck up Donny!"
