Doin' The Trailer Park!Mandy can't stand that her husband always leaves her behind when he hangs out with his friends in the trailer park, so she decides to join them all. When he passes out, though, she soon finds out that being the only woman in the group has it's consequences!2. Doin' The Park N' Ride!Krystal married a much older man, and she is mostly happy. Mostly, because he can't satisfy her sexually- so when a stranger confuses her for his sexual hook up at the park and ride, she decides to give in and get some good, hard cock! Little does Krystal know that this wasn't just some one-on-one sex hookup that the stranger had planned, but a good old fashioned gang-bang, redneck style- and when his friends arrive, Krystal finds herself in the middle of a five man rotation on the side of the highway!3. Doin' The Neighborhood!Janice married Tom, even though he was from the backwoods and her people looked down on him for it. After seven years, he has turned mostly into a civilized man- at least until a group of rednecks move in next door. She doesn't like this, but she likes it even less when her husband invites them over on the Fourth Of July for beer and hot dogs. Once the alcohol starts flowing and the clothes start coming off, Janice soon sees that not everything is bad about having a bunch of hillbillies as neighbors- or being married to one, either!4.

The only time she is even able to get into the laundry room is early in the morning, but being alone to wash her clothes has it's advantages- it is the perfect place for her to get her rocks off! Little does she know, though, that this isn't going to be like every other Sunday morning before- and when a drunk rednecks wanders in, Lori soon learns the pleasure of being under the dominance of a backwoods man (and whoever else he lets have a piece of her)!5. Doin' The Hoe Down!When Sandra bought her home, sight unseen, she knew she was taking a chance- but fifty thousand dollars for a three bedroom home in the hills was worth it! Everything seemed great at first, until her new neighbors decided to have a loud party with louder music.

He decides it's time that Sandra learn about what a real Tennessee hoe-down is all about!

Book Description
The first of its kind - a heavily illustrated, all-you-need-to-know book about the cult hit TV show, for both rabid fans and anyone who enjoys a hot toasted chicken finger. To the storied and pastoral locales of great Canadian fiction - Leacock' s Mariposa, Lawrence's Manawaka, Montgomery's Avonlea - readers can now add the many splendours of Sunnyvale Trailer Park. With this lovingly designed volume, to grace even the finest toilet-side magazine basket, Ricky, Bubbles, Julian and the whole TPB crew stumble, bewildered and slightly aggravated, from the screen to the page - without spilling a drop of rum and Coke. Working in concert with the show's creators Matthew Sibiga and Don Wininger have developed a wide range of interpretive devices, helpful lists, historical mementoes, legal advice, wrestling, kitty-care and grooming tips, and more, to aid in any fan's appreciation of the show - or substitute for it when the cable is out. Added to these features is a two-page synopsis of every episode, including stats, air dates and best lines. Numerous photos and sidebars scattered throughout include quotes, philosophical gleanings and tidbits from the series. Just in time for new episodes on Netflix (or of yet-another-re-run) of one of the most popular television shows ever created in Canada, The Complete Trailer Park Boys truly will be a resource no fan can do without. Some sample chapter topics: Ricky: -A list of Rickyisms -Map of areas in the park where he has passed out -A detailed pictorial of his car/home Bubbles: -Bubbles's shopping cart chop shop-behind the scenes -Go-cart performance specs -Bubbles eye chart Julian: -Julian's fashion tips (how to match black with black) -Best money-making schemes -T-shirt wearing and the art of seduction -Julian' s bartending mix book Other characters: -J-Roc rap lyrics -Ray's tips on beating the government on disability -Corey and Trevor's gas siphoning tips
