Characters, etc.

First Show Appearance: Thanksgiving on Trailer Park Avenue Played by: Mike Cunliffe Notes: The photo shows "Cousin" Rick covered in soot following an explosion during an attempt at frying a frozen turkey. "Cousin" Rick was also one of the characters featured on the cover of the Birmingham News City Scene on November 20, 2009. "Cousin" Rick works at Home Depot. He's the guy up front who knows where everything is. He likes to think Home Depot gives him that responsibility because he's knowledgeable and sharp. Really it's because he's accident prone and they don't want him touching the merchandise, especially the power tools. It's safer for him, the customers, and the employees. Rick considers himself something of an inventor and is always looking for that big idea that will make him rich and famous. He spends a lot of time in his garage playing with propane and making his neighbors nervous. Due to the shoddy law skills of his court appointed attorney during a recent court case involving unpaid parking tickets, not only has Rick had his driver's license permanently suspended, he is also legally required to tell everyone he meets that he is a registered sex offender in the state of Florida.
