“The First Rat in Space” tells stories from the author’s degenerate childhood, with insane anecdotes about his family, friends and bizarre adventures. He does this all through one master plan: “Get attention. Get laughs. Get laid.” In this first volume of The Scourge of Greenbriar, he writes of his Grandma Bernie and her obsession with bowel movements, playground experiments gone horribly wrong, his torment of a 7-Eleven clerk with anger management problems…and Ted Nugent’s scrotum! As he takes us from early childhood all the way through college, you can’t help but laugh at the stories, wondering if they actually happened or if they’ve come from the bent mind of the Scourge himself.
