Lebowskifest, gathering of the Dudes

Just got back from an entertaining and enlightening journey to Louisville KY, I drove a 1,000 each way to make a thousand new friends. The trip it's self was grueling, but it was so worth it. Lebowskifest, my first, was an incredibly good time, I truly look forward to going to other fests.

The people were very cool, and I made lots of new friends, all very Dude, the atmosphere was light and easy, fun with no problems. Everyone seemed to embody the Dude's take er easy attitude, fun and good company were the order of the day. Those guys know how to throw a party, from bar crawl parades to music and drink, this was an event any Dudeist could enjoy. I highly recommend attending one in your area, unless you like traveling as much as I, then pack the car, cause this is a worthy road trip.

Not just that, but I finally got to meet The Dudely Lama(Oliver Benjamin) co founder along with Dwayne Eutsey, of The Church of The Latter-Day Dude. That Dude is cool, we were fast friends and totally in sync. Duder is a wise and obviously caring person, it is wonderful that him and Dwayne have built a new bungalow for us spiritual wondering Dudes. Between Lebowskifest and Dudeism we have the beginnings of a Dude culture that can serve to chill out some of the damage all the reactionaries have wrought.

If you read this, I can't stress enough that any chill Dude would dig the Lebowskifest style. Rock on Lebowskists.

New Glass

About to deliver the first piece of glass to my first paying customer of the reopening of my engraving business. It's the Fantasy Football trophy I designed for Joe, just added the most recent winners, but still, it marks the new beginning.

Still working on Dude mug, but had a brainstorm on that last night, should have first one done in two weeks. Also some headway with design for Colbert piece, traditional cut eagle in the plan. Touched base with Pairpoint, and picked up a bunch of blanks, hope to have those ready soon too.

Football pics to follow.
