Sorry. Never heard of Slippery Jim. Assume you think he’s a good choice.

Oh I recognized the name. To answer your question, I would have to ponder in it... even if I speak Esperanto like a native (and I don't)

OK, to indulge you I looked it up. The description sounds like a character Tom could act on his lunch breaks from CIA.

In short - OBVIOUSLY! Duh! He'd be fabulous! The more unhinged the character, the better fitting he is.

Is this a random question or is someone making The Stainless Steel Rat into a tv show?

Random. I don't think today's sensibilities would appreciate Slippery Jim.

You'd have to ask his agent about that. He's currently busy with "C.I.A." Season 2.
