The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I greatly enjoyed viewing the Coen brother's comedy 'The Big Lebowski' around the time of its 1998 release. About fifteen years or so later, when one of our sons and a young son of his by marriage were visiting us in our home, the youngster turned to me and out of the blue said "you're the Big Lebowski". At that point I had only a vague memory of the movie; not much more than that I'd liked it and it's namesake character, played by Jeff Bridges, who referred to himself as 'the Dude'.

Last night I happened to view it again, and found it to be quite hilarious, making me laugh out loud on occasion. My grandson-in-law's comment came to mind, and I couldn't figure out why he might have likened me to the Dude.
