Book excerpt: In the present book we follow the billionaire John Greeley alias Mr. Cucumber around the world, where he farts and burps his way through luxurious hotels, restaurants, airplanes, Playboy Clubs and brothels. John was born with hair and beard like an adult. Well, such things can happen, we all know that. But he also had a few extras, as already indicated. From an early age people occasionally ran to save their lives because of his explosive stomach. Eventually whole buildings would vanish around him. Mr. Cucumber is 63 years old at the time that he tells his story. But he looks like a man at 25 and behaves like a kid. At some point in life he develops clairvoyant abilities.
