Many were unhappy with my choice of Walter over the Kill-Your-Fucking-Car guy, but I defend and stand by that decision <a href="http://lebowskidc.blogspot.com/2007/01/is-this-your-homework.html">here</a>. This year's early favorites:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>1. Chris Chase -- He has made it clear to me already, on several occasions, that his costume will be the clear winner, "if I can pull it off."<br /><br />2. Jeremy Becker -- Still stinging from last year's close loss, Becker intends to claim what he thinks is rightfully his.<br /><br />3. Ben Horowitz -- To rank the two-time defending costume champion third is an insult. Will he rise to the challenge or, like Arthur Digby Sellers, is his creativity on life-support?<br /><br />4. Robbie Jaffe -- In previous years, the Saddam costume would have won him the crown. Last year it was only good enough for third place. Will he abide another poor performance?<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0g8Te0-V-dCsIAJYoxVQ5kHTHT1NUyTRQGjv4_Nc8PvQ5DWxp53W2kEDoRRi0iIi2nULe0xZrjZI71wvR21Dyk8DWrSJ_f8oVXw3DLNzAPMRtCt7a4AQHXozhbcfzkUHYVIkrpPWRPHGq/s1600-h/in-out.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 182px; height: 136px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0g8Te0-V-dCsIAJYoxVQ5kHTHT1NUyTRQGjv4_Nc8PvQ5DWxp53W2kEDoRRi0iIi2nULe0xZrjZI71wvR21Dyk8DWrSJ_f8oVXw3DLNzAPMRtCt7a4AQHXozhbcfzkUHYVIkrpPWRPHGq/s320/in-out.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5051106491581127378" border="0" /></a>5.

Except perhaps bowling), so concludes the DUDE tournament in thissa here room, where we have thai sticks instead of bad calls, and Bob playing instead of 8(teen) year olds.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">FINAL FOUR</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1. Walter</span> vs. 2. Brandt<br />No coincidence that today is the Jewish holiday of Passover: Three thousand years of beautiful basketball, from Moses (Malone) to Red Auerbach, you're goddamn right we're living in the fucking past. And in the lane.<br /><br />12. The Urn vs. <span style="font-weight: bold;">4. Bunny</span><br />Where was she, when she didn't even kidnap herself? Winning, that's where.

Walter</span> vs. 4. Bunny<br />Bunny was a good player, and a good lay. She was...she was a nymphomaniac. She was a woman who loved cable, and Vegas, and as a sex fiend she explored the beaches of southern California, from La Jolla to the sandy back of a Volkswagon. She lost, like so many second-rate porn stars of her generation, in hi-definition. In your wisdom, Walter, you took her (to the hoop), just like you took so many others in this DUDE tournament to the hoop, including Woo, Liam, and 'Nam. These young players gave their wins. And so did Bunny. Bunny who loved Nihilists. And so, Bunny Lebowski nee Fawn Knutsen, in accordance with what we think your losing wishes might well have been, we remit your final, mortal, voluptuous remains to the bosom of Sheri in Logjammin, who you loved so well.<br /><br />Good night sweet princess. <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span>jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-29147690577438279992007-03-25T19:17:00.000-07:002007-03-28T20:46:30.459-07:00The DUDE Tournament - Final 4The Tournament continues, without further a<span style="font-style: italic;">dude</span>:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">THIRD ROUND - MALIBU REGION</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1. The Big Lebowski</span> vs 4. Malibu Police Chief<br />He didn't like the Big L's jerk-off wheelchair. He didn't like his jerk-off rug. He didn't like his jerk-off Chinaman hatred. And he really didn't like his jerk-off finger roll.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">2. Brandt</span> vs 11. The Corvette Owner<br />A million bucks? Hardly Dude. The Owner played like 30 or 40,000 bucks, depending on the options. (Sorry, Becker. I guess you lose again. But I settled that so-called debate <a href="http://lebowskidc.blogspot.com/2007/01/is-this-your-homework.html">here</a>, not to mention on the car ride back from the Giants game.

Others would just say she shoots like a girl.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">2. The Stranger</span> vs 3. Arthur Digby Sellers<br />The Tomahawk jam? That's not some kinda Eastern thing. Far from it.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br />FOURTH ROUND - MALIBU REGION</span><br /><br />1. The Big Lebowski vs. <span style="font-weight: bold;">2. Brandt</span><br />A little-known Brandt fact: He once beat Prince on his own court. Then served him pancakes.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">SO-CAL REGION</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1. Walter</span> vs <span>14.

Donnie vs <span style="font-weight: bold;">12. The Urn</span><br />I didn't like seeing Donnie go. And the Urn didn't like seeing Donnie go out in an empty tin of Folger's coffee from Ralph's.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">NORTH HOLLYWOOD REGION</span><br /><br />2.

It was difficult narrowing the field of characters down to 64--<span style="font-weight: bold;">V.I.

They didn't want to be hard-asses about it, but they've petitioned the league to possibly forfeit over the tournament to them.<br /><br />The Dude himself will not participate.

White Cop<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">This is kind of like pitting Lenny against Carl in a Simpsons tournament. The black cop quickly closed the book on this one.<br /></span><br />5. Marty the Landlord vs 12. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Marmot</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;">The amphibious rodent in a domestic, uh, within the city--the beating he put on Marty, that ain't legal either.<br /><br /></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Malibu Police Chief</span> vs 13. The Seattle Seven<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;">Yes, he's a real reactionary. But he's also a great free-throw shooter.<br /><br /></span>6. The Auto Cop vs 11. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Corvette Owner</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Leads? Yeah, the auto cop had a few leads. He lead by four late</span>. <span style="font-style: italic;">But then the corvette owner just kinda exploded.<br /><br /></span>3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Knox Harrington</span> vs 14. Nagelbett<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br />Like Knox Harrington, the video artist, would have any trouble with that, ugh, techno-pop.<br /></span><br /></span>7. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Checker at Ralph's</span> vs 10. The Coffee Shop Waitress<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">That little family restaurant didn't stand much of a chance against the mega-chain</span>.<br /><br />2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Brandt</span> vs 15. The Little Lebowski Urban Achievers<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">They fought hard, those poor kids. Proud Brandt was of all of them.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br />SO-CAL REGION<br /><br /></span></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Walter Sobchack</span> vs 16. Burkhalter<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The game had to be rescheduled (Walter doesn't ball on Shabbos). Walter told him a thousand times, but that kraut down at the league office must have forgotten, because he didn't even show up.<br /></span><br />8. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Woo</span> vs 9. Blond Treehorn Thug <span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Ever thus to white guys, Blondie.<br /><br /></span></span>5.<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> </span></span>Cab Driver vs 12. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Eagles</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span>I'm not a conspiracy-theorist, but something tells me he let them win.<br /><br /></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Liam O'Brien</span> vs 13. Da Fino<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Word on the street is, Liam got angry when Da Fino was caught with his special lady before the game.<br /><br /></span></span><span>6. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Pilar</span> vs 11. Walter's Dirty Undies<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Did you really think Pilar would have trouble handling the whites?<br /><br /></span>3. Smokey vs 14. <span style="font-weight: bold;">'Nam</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Smokey conscientiously objected to the game.</span></span><span><br /><br />7.<span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>Tony the chauffeur vs 10. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Big Lebowski chauffeur</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Forget about it.<br /><br /></span>2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jackie</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Treehorn </span>vs 15. The Doctor<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Jackie Treehorn doesn't slide down his shorts for any man, no matter how thorough he is</span>.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">CAMEROW REGION<br /><br /></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jesus Quintana</span> vs 16. The Jewish Day of Rest<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">What's this day-of-rest shit? It didn't matter to Jesus.<br /><br /></span>8. Nihilist #2 (Kieffer) vs 9. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Nihilist</span> #3 (Franz aka Flea)<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Flea stomped on him, then squished him</span></span>.<br /><br />5.

The Ringer<br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">The Ringer lost despite sending a ringer to play for him.<br /><br /></span></span></span><span>6. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Little Larry Sellers</span> vs 11. Mrs. Jamtoss </span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">He stone-walled her</span></span></span></span><span>.<br /><br />3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Karl Hungus</span> vs 14. The Trampoline Girl</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">He fixed her cable, if you know what I</span></span></span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> mean.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span><span>7. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bob</span> vs 10. Credence<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">When Maude's thugs stole the rug, the tape with Bob remained unharmed, but when Little Larry stole the car, we didn't hold out much hope for the Credence. Need I say more?<br /><br /></span>2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Donnie Kerabatsos</span> vs 15. The In-&-Out Burger</span><span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Those are good burgers, but not good enough</span></span></span></span></span><span>.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">NORTH HOLLYWOOD REGION<br /><br /></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Maude Lebowski</span> vs 16. Sherry in Logjammin<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">This game very quickly became ludicrous.<br /></span><br />8. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Black Dude in the Opening Credits</span> vs 9. Hispanic Dude in Opening Credits<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">One made a 7-10 split, the other did a dainty fist-pump; you tell me who should have won.<br /></span><br />5. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Toe</span> vs 12. Nihilist Girlfriend<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Game started at 2:30, the Toe had it by 3:00 in the afternoon. With nail polish.<br /><br /></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bunny Lebowski</span> vs 13. Fawn Knutsen<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Matching these two up in the first round was the best way to ensure that Tara Reid advanced. (Plus, Fawn couldn't stay in her zone defense once she saw Karl Hungus in the stands.)<br /><br /></span>6. Saddam Hussein vs 11. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Richard Nixon<br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;">I'll take a bowler over a dictator any day.<br /><br /></span>3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Arthur Digby Sellers</span> vs 14. Gary the Bartender<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Ever hear of a little show called Branded? Not exactly a lightweight</span>.<br /><br />7. Maude Thug #1 vs 10. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Maude Thug #2<br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;">I think that was the one in the cut-off shorts.<br /></span><br />2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Stranger</span> vs 15. The Queen in Her Damn Undies<span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">He won, and in English, too.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">SECOND ROUND - MALIBU REGION<br /><br /></span></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Big Lebowski</span> vs 8. The Black Cop<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The black cop had a clear advantage, being black, but The Big L went out and achieved anyway.<br /><br /></span></span></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Malibu Police Chief</span> vs 12. The Marmot<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-style: italic;">The chief had a lot of fans, mostly anti-Semites, because he was playing in his home region.<br /></span><br />3. Knox Harrington vs 11. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Corvette Owner</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> </span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Anyone who is slovenly and wearing a robe in the early evening yet still able to buy a new corvette is doing something right.<br /><br /></span>2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Brandt</span> vs 7. The Checker at Ralph's<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Just like in the movie, the checker looked pretty disinterested. And, if you're Brandt, that's marvelous</span>.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">SO-CAL REGION<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Walter</span> vs 8. Woo<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The Chinaman was not an issue, Dude.<br /><br /></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Liam</span> vs 12. The Eagles<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">It's a little-known fact, but apparently Liam hates the Eagles too.<br /></span><br />6. Pilar vs 14. <span style="font-weight: bold;">'Nam</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Nam left her lying face down in the muck.<br /><br /></span></span>2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jackie Treehorn</span> vs 10. Lebowski Chauffeur<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Jackie Treehorn holds a lot of water around here, and the chauffeur has been known to spill a few beverages. I have no idea what that means.<br /><br /><br /></span></span><span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">CAMEROW REGION<br /><br /></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jesus Quintana</span> vs 9. Nihilist #3<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The Nihilist didn't believe Jesus could beat him. But that didn't matter to Jesus.<br /><br /></span>4. The Dude's Car vs 12. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Urn</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-style: italic;">The car survived two accidents and a crazed smashing, but it did get burned by the Nihilists at the end. And guess who was there to sweep up the ashes.<br /><br /></span></span>3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Karl Hungus</span> vs 6. Little Larry Sellers<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Hungus believes in nothing, including beating up on small children</span></span></span>.<br /><br />2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Donnie</span> vs 7. Bob<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">All right. Way to go, Donnie.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><br /></span></span></span><span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">NORTH HOLLYWOOD REGION<br /><br /></span></span>1. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Maude</span> vs 8. Black Dude from Opening Credits<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">If you watch carefully, the black dude throws a different colored ball from the one that actually completes the 7-10 splits in the opening credits. And the DUDE tournament doesn't allow cheaters.<br /><br /></span></span>4. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bunny</span> vs 5. The Toe<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Bunny really blew out the toe. (</span>Actually, she had someone else blow it out for her. She couldn't blow that far herself.)<br /><br /></span></span>3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Arthur Digby Sellers</span> vs 11. Richard Nixon<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Yes, the beloved Branded author has health problems, but, let's face it, Nixon's dead.<br /><br /></span>2. <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Stranger</span> vs 10. Maude Thug #2<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The thug used too many durned cuss words.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Join us next week for the Sweet Sixteen.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></span>jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-52761878504657745962007-02-26T17:02:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:19:23.581-08:00Washington Lebo'SkinsSometimes there's a blog post -- I won't say a hero, 'cause what's a hero -- but sometimes there's a blog post, well, shoot, I done introduced <a href="http://heyjennyslater.blogspot.com/2005/12/letting-no-good-idea-go-unstolen-its.html">the post</a> comparing the SEC football teams to Simpsons characters enough.<br /><br />Being as lazy as the Dude, I've decided to kidnap myself; myself, in this case, being the aforementioned post; SEC football teams being the Washington Redskins players; and Simpsons characters being, of course, Lebowski folk.<br /><br />The Skins lineup is in our hands, Dude...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgetWEWqtjHmMB-LciyNeZVWZDSp0y0dYNlOa1R3c7BEXf-TFg1CyiHL4pDKlJfep3xECu9QTxVUaDzGHdakoZmR3XxCqqBwFDZ38xwBGxKGP0IKELkU0gNoltEORDROK9A7CqAdmZhXCyu/s1600-h/danny.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 132px; height: 159px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgetWEWqtjHmMB-LciyNeZVWZDSp0y0dYNlOa1R3c7BEXf-TFg1CyiHL4pDKlJfep3xECu9QTxVUaDzGHdakoZmR3XxCqqBwFDZ38xwBGxKGP0IKELkU0gNoltEORDROK9A7CqAdmZhXCyu/s200/danny.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5036057932864371586" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmT60XkZRUBm8YrVjNI5Ds4gnII74FV3jBeHzdAknXJl47yFm1gh1OreQg65YROyhqvdjkJ0tT3KU1VDvEq6YsWcHNCJAwD3ws-NPQ-sxowOnQdvE3LcPX-M6CYdowfxieqAM0Aszotk-T/s1600-h/bigleb.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmT60XkZRUBm8YrVjNI5Ds4gnII74FV3jBeHzdAknXJl47yFm1gh1OreQg65YROyhqvdjkJ0tT3KU1VDvEq6YsWcHNCJAwD3ws-NPQ-sxowOnQdvE3LcPX-M6CYdowfxieqAM0Aszotk-T/s200/bigleb.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5036058027353652114" a="" border="0" /></a><br /></div><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Dan Snyder = The Big Lebowski</span><br />Pretty much every season, the goddamn plane crashes into the mountain.

Say what you want about its tenets, at least it's an ethos.<br /><br /><i><a href="http://dudeism.com">Dudeism.com</a> </i>is actually a fantastic site. The writer of the article, however, needs to revisit a little Dude 101. In her attempt to cleverly play off the film's dialogue, she writes: "Perhaps that's what makes the Dude so dang appealing." Perhaps she meant "so darned interesting."<br /><br />She goes on to call the Dude "lazy but not lackadaisical." We know she owns a dictionary--her lede references one. (And how refreshing it is to see the dictionary lede outside of a high school yearbook.) According to my dictionary, lazy is the second definition of lackadaisical. Perhaps we should cut her a break, though. The first definition, after all, is listless.<br /><br />Our Great Reporter in the Field couldn't quite get a comment from Dudeism.com's creator; I'll admit, us Lebowski site builders are hard to reach. She did manage to track down our good friend Will Russell of Lebowski Fest, who is the primary reason this site changed URLs from lebowskifestdc.com. More on this un-Dude in a later post. But, for now, <span style="font-style: italic;">some </span>on this un-Dude.<br /><blockquote>[The Dude] keeps rolling with the punches. They pee on his rug and he goes and gets another rug.</blockquote>That's what Russell has to say in defense of the Dude "abiding." I've always found it pretty darned interesting--I'm sorry, pretty <span style="font-style: italic;">dang appealing</span>--that supposed Lebowski pundits (and, in this case, Russell as well) interpret the Dude's action during the movie as Dude-like. The beauty of the movie is that we understand what the Dude is typically<span style="font-style: italic;"> </span>like even though he's rarely like that during the film--particularly when he aggressively, and uncharacteristically, takes the second rug at Walter's prodding. Hence Duderino's revealing line, "My thinking about this case has become very uptight," late in the film.<br /><br />And, according to my dictionary, uptight doesn't mean lazy. It doesn't even mean lackadaisical.jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-57856801568458767792007-02-15T20:08:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:19:23.928-08:00The Hungus Haiku<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHPxgrqFx3sA1q9cETR1SBYai1ZpjBm-NRFyB86GZx_T60fT0tGalzFCkse-lejrpSbxfOcY_24e0nYQX8mV_jQj7DvcIspO_ghQxrfHvik3YlFsE3c8w6mcWv0_KLETmL3S6BUpbHq30h/s1600-h/karl-hungus.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHPxgrqFx3sA1q9cETR1SBYai1ZpjBm-NRFyB86GZx_T60fT0tGalzFCkse-lejrpSbxfOcY_24e0nYQX8mV_jQj7DvcIspO_ghQxrfHvik3YlFsE3c8w6mcWv0_KLETmL3S6BUpbHq30h/s320/karl-hungus.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5031980151988555714" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Where is zee money, Lebowksi?<br /></span></span></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The Hungus Haiku</span><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />You see zee problem:<br />Dana cable is unplugged.<br />I am zee expert</div>jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-32653136691139852322007-02-03T14:00:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:19:24.151-08:00The Fuckin' Eagles<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRdjjDqOEDMfZV37uoz6iGEa1wrpfZ0guik_dO8Rk9_9NkIuf-KNBGXR_af930kcdy24NG2ms2_ucDqjtZO1VCn13smgp3bX84-YoG_8ooeUj1Wa0hGSj4aAXKPx5qgTRc-vHiU1q0vQo5/s1600-h/1-Lebowski.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 146px; height: 201px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRdjjDqOEDMfZV37uoz6iGEa1wrpfZ0guik_dO8Rk9_9NkIuf-KNBGXR_af930kcdy24NG2ms2_ucDqjtZO1VCn13smgp3bX84-YoG_8ooeUj1Wa0hGSj4aAXKPx5qgTRc-vHiU1q0vQo5/s320/1-Lebowski.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5027517260218439714" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">I hate the fucking Eagles</span></span><br /></div><br />The Eagles are <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/Music/02/01/people.eagles.ap/index.html">getting back together</a>.

Here it is, verbatim, in the parlance of our time:<br /><blockquote>"There's a lady in front of me who's yielding, when there’s no one to yield to, and my heater hasn’t come on yet.<br /><br />"And my class was a full two hours and 45 minutes, and it was boring as hell, and some lady was talking about hypotheticals that would happen to nobody. So she’s just sitting there giving scenario after scenario. ‘Well, if you can’t do your field experience because a bear has mauled your sister-in-law, then here’s what you do, and if you can’t do your field experience because a 747 crashed on your neighbor’s house, then here’s what you do.’ I’m like, lady, give me something I could use.<br /><br />"And why are we braking? It said left turn only. So now you’re getting in the right—Oh <span style="font-style: italic;">now</span> you’re crossing the bridge. No shit, you have DC plates. Of course you’re going over the bridge. Goddamn. And now we’re going to brake and go three miles an hour up this hill. You have your fucking hazards on. Either turn em off, or get off the road.<br /><br />"Are you still on the phone? [<span style="font-style: italic;">Jackie's Note: I was never on the phone.</span>] Wow. I kinda blacked out there.<br /><br />"<span style="font-style: italic;">Now</span> you turn your hazards off. What, because the left turn at a 75-degree angle—are you fucking kidding me? Both of you! I hope you drive off the cliff, both of you. Right into the river.<br /><br />"Where was I? Maybe I should read that book you and <a href="http://lebowskidc.blogspot.com/2007/01/is-this-your-homework.html">Ben</a> got me.” [<span style="font-style: italic;">Jackie's Note: The book in reference was a self-help guide to anger management.</span>]<br /></blockquote><br /><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote></blockquote> </span>jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-28577994401862304192007-01-18T16:49:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:19:24.979-08:00Is This Your Homework?<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbxYYMIJNWzpplFLM5Txi6ynSZthRcXj2LLTjy_LMIQnDsc5lwOSF_dL5LbM4Is9ICNrTt13Z33F7_F36a-9KiCGTU2DbkC-99L9fDnV37G8iXKG-M1OV7s5ApOD3z0RpeL53NUBiHB4Ns/s1600-h/horo-walter.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbxYYMIJNWzpplFLM5Txi6ynSZthRcXj2LLTjy_LMIQnDsc5lwOSF_dL5LbM4Is9ICNrTt13Z33F7_F36a-9KiCGTU2DbkC-99L9fDnV37G8iXKG-M1OV7s5ApOD3z0RpeL53NUBiHB4Ns/s400/horo-walter.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5021539918804351650" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Becker: This is why you lost the costume contest.</span><br /></div>jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1045433226943551292.post-60957644299072699802007-01-17T21:27:00.000-08:002008-11-12T19:19:25.207-08:00Perhaps They Towed It<div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLl07wd78k49ytOIATMwqUPcYQDEyCuttRsmusF6Piw5e8ubSXcf0nofViQuU1tL7ru3mePBzI9KIxBuAqJ0EvOHbt5GX5yLLcHLSjS2o_jOwKgItU9HhPhnaA4yLxfEvtKHAEgWLGogL1/s1600-h/pahk-the-cah.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLl07wd78k49ytOIATMwqUPcYQDEyCuttRsmusF6Piw5e8ubSXcf0nofViQuU1tL7ru3mePBzI9KIxBuAqJ0EvOHbt5GX5yLLcHLSjS2o_jOwKgItU9HhPhnaA4yLxfEvtKHAEgWLGogL1/s400/pahk-the-cah.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5021238236006513282" border="0" /></a>We don't know how this little red number fit its way into that tight spot, but we watched the whole damn thing.<br /><br />Even the part where the driver got out and waved.<br /><br />We do know, however, that he dinged those other two cars.

In this arrangement (right), the two back pins nearest to the gutters are left standing after the first roll.<br /><br />When picking up the 7-10, it helps to have a good relationship with God. That, or a combination of blindness and convincing friends.<br /><br />Still, there are three things you can do to help your chances:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 102, 0);">Hook</span><br />The ball should travel on an angle toward the 7 (the 10 if you’re a lefty). A straight roll can only work if it flirts with the gutter the entire time, dropping off at the absolute last moment before impact. Chances are you’ll have more luck flirting with that blond at the bar.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 102, 0);">Hard</span><br />A slow roll might seem more controlled, but it’s also less likely to give the pin maximum ricochet possibility. And it primes you for the biggest let-down of all (besides the blond telling you to shove off): Hitting the 7 pin so slowly that it falls and rolls inches from the 10 without making contact.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 102, 0);">Hope</span><br />The hope is that the 7 pin ricochets off the back wall, stops — in mid air, mind you — pirouettes and just tips into the side of the 10. That, my friend, is one magic roll.<br /><br />Ever picked up the 7-10? <a href="mailto:lebowskidc@hotmail.com">Tell Lebowski DC</a> about it, or any other bowling-related miracles, mishaps, or what-have-yous.jackiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08095949632240118374noreply@blogger.com0
