Rick’s Joke of Books

Following thrilling stints as a sailor-for-hire, a spinach farmer, a slapstick Vaudeville and film comedian, a Zamboni driver, a banana ripening room supervisor, a Duck-Billed Platypus tamer in a circus, a lousy rotten foul-mouthed self-loathing sinner, a church trustee (pro tem), a tea lush, a figure skating dress designer, a porta-potty maintenance truck operator, a male cake-popper, a Guy Friday, and a book formatter and editor of marginal proficiency and no renown, Rick Helley turned his attention to committing to paper a representative collection comprising decades of his lousy jokes. The present volume, RICK'S JOKE OF BOOKS, his legacy to whomever and whatever, is the result.
