When I read the following offering from Slim Randles to start the New Year, I had to smile. I can relate to Doc. In fact, for probably the last 10 years I have hardly ever stayed up to the midnight hour on New Year’s Eve, preferring to go to bed at my usual time, and […]
The week between the holidays gets a bit chaotic for many people, myself included, so I am letting Slim Randles entertain you today with an essay.

Grab a piece of this Christmas Bunt Cake and help me welcome Slim Randles as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. He is having fun with the guys down at the Mule Barn Truck Stop. Enjoy…. “I can’t stand winter,” said Herb Collins, who had dropped in at the Mule Barn’s philosophy counter for a quick cup.

Before we get into the serious stuff, I want to share this picture a friend sent me in e-mail. There were a bunch of pictures depicting Senior Fun, and I liked this one best. While I am still trying to get my head around the fact that we, here in the States, actually elected
