LL - The Younger Years


Mesa, AZ, with girlfriend.

Lori's father did stage wrestling (like WWF, before there was WWF) in addition to his day job. He wrestled under the stage name, "The Terrible Turk"...even though he was French, not Turkish. Naturally, I did not fear him because then, as now, I was indestructible.
There was a more famous "Terrible Turk" who wrestled in the late 1800's. Her father was a far less famous wrestler with the same moniker. There was ANOTHER Terrible Turk that I found on a Google search who wrestled in AZ in the 2011 timeframe. 
And while I'm at it, happy birthday WoFat.
