If you're into the whole Big Lebowski thing

[deutsey]

Check out the Dudespaper.com...in particular, my latest column

It's got time, quantum physics, William Blake, William Shatner, and the Dude (among other things).

If you're into it, lemme know what your opinion is, man.

7. Excellent, as always

. . . but it looks an awful lot like work to me. :hippie: Love TED talks--always interesting--and Shatner and Nimoy are always good. And here's a totally random bit of synchronicity: Just returned from shopping, where I picked up a new dog toy (AKC eco-friendly toys on clearance)--opted for the marmot because it just seemed the obvious choice. (Not really sure why they want to train our pets to attack spotted owls and Bambi's mom; some of the choices were rather odd that way.) My son was disappointed I was actually going to give it to the dog and thought it belonged next to the bathtub.

8. I'm sure it was a nice marmot.

12. I loved the cake Duff made for Lebowski Fest

It had the toe, the rug, White Russian and the bowling pin headdress!

Added - link to the Lebowski Fest site: http://lebowskifest.com/7thannual.asp

Very free-spirited. :-)

16. Duff of Ace of Cakes is a Lebowski fan

All through the episode he kept using quotes from the movie. His band played at the Fest, too. The cake was soaked with alcohol - the attempt was to make it White Russian flavor. Apparently the cake was a big success - after it was admired and photographed, it took only seconds for it to be devoured. The shots shown on the episode had people carving chucks out with their paper plates!

Here is the episode online:

13. My biggest regret in college...

...was that I never got around to writing that term paper exploring the Freudian interpretation of The Big Lebowski.

14. Two things

1. Write it now and contribute it to us at the Dudespaper...

2. Check out the high-falutin' section there with academic papers on TBL: http://dudespaper.com/dude-university/

17. Well, I'm more into the whole brevity thing

I gave that movie to my daughter and her husband for Christmas - a new generation is born. The whole circle of life thing....

I look forward to exploring the site. :hi:
