    Mongolia holiday tips wanted

    If you are coming on July 14th, you maybe a little too late for Naadam in Ulaanbaatar. However, you may go to the countryside for smaller versions tough. Find a tour guide and get out of UB as soon as you can, I'd say. There are many quality tour guides in the city. It's a rugged country. Go to Terelj for more of a touristy affair, or if you are an outdoorsy person, try something more challenging. Do check travelblog.org and travelpod.com

    Day 11 Rikishi Speakeasy

    (Holiday feeling...) from the 7 thousand
  3. Murakami

    Suppose Baruto....

    When you are up to your ass in alligators, it is difficult to remember that you started out to drain the swamp. (Sign of approval...) Still, Baruto had a good chance to take the initiative. From that position, he should have flung open Asa's right hand for a diversion. Then right foothold inside. twist to the left and at the same time raising and hurling Asa forward by his left shoulder over the right foothold. And then left hand on the neck to finish.

    Suppose Baruto....

    One of the biggest mistakes the opponents of Asashoryu make is "not keeping up the offensive."

    Happy birthday Profomisakari!

    though, late. Thanks Fujisan. Crossing the 30 mark. Yes, twice as much alcohol. Repercussions still felt today. goodbye to my wild 'happy go lucky' 20's.

    Ms. Uchidate- "We are not pleased!"

    As far as I know, she never complains about any other foreign born rikishi. She didn't complain about Akebono nor Musashimaru either. It has nothing to do with ethnicity but everything to do with wanton disregard of Ozumo traditions and customs. Asashoryu is just a big dung passing through the stream. There is bound to be more. The situation now is very similar to running around half naked waist down among strangers expecting everyone to be just friends.

    Ms. Uchidate- "We are not pleased!"

    If what she says is true and if she really wants to keep the sumo strict to the letters, she should vehemently oppose the recruitment of foreign wrestlers. Asashoryu is just a big dung passing through the stream. There is bound to be more. The situation now is very similar to running around half naked waist down among strangers expecting everyone to be just friends.

    Unknown Asashoryu

    Good perspectives from Japanese mindsets. It seems Dorji has some of the "worst" Mongol traits; independent, individualistic, emotional, schmaltzy, extroverted, spontaneous and aggressive. The divorce coupled with the suspension probably may have been heavy on him. He has come through, tough. He has problems as a human being, but as he grows older and wiser, I am sure, he can redeem himself.

    Day 10 Pics - Nagoya 09

    WARNING! Dirty Jokes ahead! If you are a minor, please slide back to viewing naked asses and titties. Hakuho: Hey, judge Judy, isn't that bit too small? Judge Judy: Lets see. Hm...., it's alright by Japanese standard! The young peek-a-boo: Oh, yeah. Kakuryu: I am not Tamir, man. You can let go off me now. Entranced Asa: I miss this soft, silky skin and warm body...... Entranced Asa: I would put her on the bed like this and... Entranced Asa: ...just a little more forward .... Entranced Asa: ...and I would grab her back like this, and .... Asa the Awaken: This is most embarassing! Oh my god! Have you guys seen it all? Jesus! Asa: Bye my dear Kakuryuryu, I love you long time! Harumafuji: I am sorry to tell you this. Your Kakuryu was taken advantage of by 'd' animale'. Kaoi: Oh, no! No! No! Sotairyu: Caught you laughin', muahaha

    What are your professions?

    Might be good to know, since we have many different people from all around the world. Maybe we could be a help to each other sometime. Mine is rather boring MBA. I work as a manager at a local company that's involved primarily in mining, mineral processing and metallurgy.

    Mongolian jungyo under way

    I hope the Japanese wrestlers had good time here, in Mongolia. The country is anything like the other Asian and European countries. Very different culture and values. I think Baruto and Kotooshu had the most fun since the country is similar to theirs.

    What are your professions?

    wow. we do have lots of IT people. If didn't make the stupid decision and switch my major, I could have been a good software developer, working somewhere in Silicon Valley, making 200Ks a year. I was a super geek, better than Kintamayama, believe me. But hell no, I end up being a lowly project manager in the least known country with a company that does the least interesting, and tons of work. Not that bad actually, at least I get the freshest air and most organic foods. Besides that I am picking up my eldest son from kindergarten today. I am so excited about that. Haven't seen him in 5 days. I wonder what I may do after I finished university... it's not that I study economy...just something "useless". Japanology, time history, translating...obviously not an English-native, female, well...I am doomed :-O You could spy for Germany in Japan. That would be so sexey. On the other hand, you could be a diplomat in Asia. That's a job most dream of. You might kick Christopher Hill's ass. Or a specialist in Japan Affairs in the German government. You tell them that when a mawashi gets loose it's only mawashi getting loose, no boobies, no assies, no deedees. Just maybe assies from behind.

    Did you see that Asa was very emotional. He is a wreck. He almost cried during the closing ceremony when saying a farewell to the audience.

    A question for our Mongolian members

    Have you been to Mongolia, Ms.Fay?

    A question for our Mongolian members

    The statue is located just off the eastern main expressway from UB, so I get to see it many times. The site is still in development. The storied pomp: "I've heard from Lazarus, you are a mightily good woman. I intend to make thee my 99th wife and rescue you from the lonely island since the wretcheds and tempest-tosts come to your way no more, only crazy Japanese tourists and bird poos from above."

    Drugs, crime, and the law

    What is the availability of drugs like in Mongolia and are the laws very strict like Japan?(I don't think so,but there's no harm asking! (Sign of approval...) ) I know that cannabis is not legal anywhere in the world.In Amsterdam famous for its drug culture,cannabis is only tolerated.Is there a similar situation in Mongolia? I'd say Mongolia is quite strict. But I've to mention, Mongolia is not one of the world's most popular markets for drugs. With all the Western popular culture influences nowadays, just some local pop culture persona are getting busted and receiving lengthy sentences lately. Several varieties of those grasses grow wild here
