"I know the feeling, although with me, sumo toys were "above being destroyed." Look what my son did to the sumo toy I made for him...

That's a very nice toy! ;-) I wish my kids were treating their toys so good that they still look wonderful after so many years! ;-)

You surely have a nice adoptee, Onnagumo! ;-)

Thanks for the Sawada pic! ;-)

This is him, the small guy on the left ;-)

Just curious: who is the author of this article? I never heard of that blog before. His name is Jacob Adelman and he is from Los Angeles and he is a journalist who spend some time in a heya and wrote a blog about his experiences over there.

I found the article from In the hall of the Mountain Kings: But when I reached the top of the steps, I was surprised to see a pointy pair of women's zippered boots outside the room. When I slid open the door, there was Iki sitting on the floor sorting photographs next to a girl in a short skirt and thigh-high stockings. I did a double take. I had never seen a woman in the stable's upper levels, and had only seen a small handful even in the common room. It never even occurred to me that a woman could exist in the wrestlers' bedroom: it was such a boys' room. But there she was. She was hot too, and in her early twenties if that. I tottered at the door, unsure if I was seeing a mirage. Then, finally, I said, "Konnichi wa," and walked in. "Harry Potter!" Iki greeted me. Then to the girl, he said, "You speak English, talk to him." But instead, she told a story

(Hugging...) Hello and ;-)

:-) Thank you!!! (Applauding...)

The words were coming straight from his heart, I am touched by it.

Happy birthday to you! (Holiday feeling...)
