Ol' Slim's Views from the Porch: A Plethora of Punditry, a Wonderment of Wisdom

When the weight of the world becomes too much for those living in the cities, there is hope. It is Ol' Slim's Views from the Porch, a monumental expenditure of words and artwork that has graced the pages of New Mexico Magazine since Tilly had pups, or January 2003. With Grem Lee's accompanying illustrations, Slim Randles' column has been introduced into homes across the country, bringing with it a plethora of punditry and a wonderment of wisdom. Twenty-four of Randles' columns are presented here with his views on many hot topics, such as how to master the secret language of dogs, why men need a hole-up spot, and why coffee has joined corn dogs and barbecued potato chips as one of the world's three essential food groups.
