Jeff Bridges: Let me explain something to you. Um, I am not “Mr. Lebowski”. You’re Mr. Lebowski. I’m the Dude. So that’s what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.
Many ask why I call my black cat the Dude. I am reminded of the movie as talked about above. The name just fits and there is a certain way you have to say it. Watching the movie helps understand.
Thunder is rolling, clouds are everywhere. Rain soon I hope.

Dylan was named for my favorite writer (Dylan Thomas). Raven for my favorite poem by one of my favorite poets (Edgar Allen Poe)
I love the name Raven. Thanks for sharing Doc.
You bet 🙂 Please ask the Dude if I can borrow his bowling ball…
Ha, he says sure any time. 🙂
When you love someone and you love them with your heart, it never disappears when you’re apart.and when you love someone more and you’ve done all you can do, you set them free. and is that love was true when you love someone, it will all come back to you.
I agree with your sentiments.
… but it has nothing to do with my article.
Nickle, Dime, Penny me to death…
Meika, Sweet shy one.
Luna, well the Moon… My son picked it because her blue eye reminded him of the moon.
Loved all the comments on this one, and now I know where the Dudes name comes from. I just thought he looked like “one cool dude”
He really does look like a cool dude Kim. Something about the way Bridges said the name… Duuuuuude that fit.
the dude abides… he just wants a new rug…
… I don’t know about you, but I take comfort in that. It’s good knowin’ he’s out there, The Dude, takin’ her easy for all us sinners.
Such a great film. Really well done
When we got Tinker we were watching Hook so Stacy explained how we couldn’t name him a girl’s naa me like Tinkerbell, so she decided on the name Tinker. Our other cat was soooo fast we called him Zinger.
Those are cool stories LaJenna.
Now I know where the idea of the name of the handsome guy came from…
Has the rain come down again?
Yes the rain has been pouring but almost done now.
All your plants must be very happy right now.
Yes but we need more, the grass needs more.
I am sure they will come more often there
Sorry Carol I forgot to add that your Dude carries his name very well because he looks altogether like a sweet kitty but also a tough cookie. I guess the color black does that to me.
Thank you, I love my Dude. The first black cat I have ever adopted and have never doubted giving him a home.
My sweet departed Tasha was named after Tashayar on Star Trek New Generation. Tashayar was the security officer on the Enterprise. My sweet Tasha though was no security guard as she would lick everybody she met. She probably would have licked a robber to death but just the same I loved her dearly.
What a lovely name, sorry she is gone. Thanks for sharing your memory.
We name our cats after Anglo-Saxon Kings of England! The current one is Athelstan (Athy for short) and our previous one was Edwy. The dog’s name is Okami – she is our son’s dog, and he has a thing about Japan. Okami is apparently Japanese for wolf!
Those are really cool names. Funny how their personalities have a lot to do with their names.
