Corey's Biography

by Alex

Corey enjoying a Cavaliers gameThe Honorable Corey LeKevin Rubin IV was found by wealthy industrialist P. Cornwallis Brownstone in the alleyway behind Alice Cooper'stown on Bolivar in 1959 as an infant. Brownstone raised the boy like a son, enrolling him in the finest institutions. Upon graduation of high school, Rubin discovered his awesome talent for trick shots and fancy dribbling and thus began to barnstorm the countryside with the Harlem Globetrotters. Notably from this time, Rubin wrote his first of an eventual eighteen autobiographies, entitled Alley-oop!: The Life and Times of the Whitest Globetrotter, for which he won the 1975 Cleveland Jewish News Book Award for Non-Fiction.

Rubin parlayed the money he earned of his next four autobiographies into enough to buy the Cleveland High-Flyin'ers of the now defunct ABA. For six seasons, Rubin ruled over the High-Flyin'ers with an iron fist. Although, his methods did bring results—the team won the championship three times in his six seasons as owner. Rubin then sold the franchise in 1983 to the Hathaway Brown School, where it has since become their fast-pitch softball team.

Following the sale of the High-Flyin'ers, Rubin disappeared from public eye except to occassionally release one of the remaining thirteen autobiographies. He has since vowed that he has completed his last of his autobiographies with new content, but is vague when asked about possible future anthologies like 2003's Corey—One Man, 6,429 Pages. Instead, Rubin will concentrate his amazing output of writing on the Mistake by the Lake Sporting Times, the official weblog of time and space. He also spends time writing orchestral scores out of classic video games soundtracks.
