My father was a professional
wrestler. Lord Athol Layton called him the 'terror from the North'.
My father was called Thor. He carried a large wooden mallet. He used
it to level opponents in the chest. He called it Odin's heart attack.
One of his most famous bouts was with Sweet Dady Siki in Madison
Square Garden. My dad said that Sweet Dady was also a country and
western singer. Like Gene Autry. Who the hell was Gene Autry? The
worst thing about wrestling was 'B.O.' Some wrestlers did not shower
regularly. Afraid perhaps of losing their allure.
