Umigame 82 Posted July 15, 2008 Great interview! Thank you for posting this! :-) One question: in the 5th photo, the black & white one, who is the rikishi on the left? I believe the others are Kyokushuzan, Kyokutenho, and Kyokutenzan himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jakusotsu 6,401 Posted July 15, 2008 One question: in the 5th photo, the black & white one, who is the rikishi on the left? I'd say Kyokudozan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Odoriou 0 Posted July 16, 2008 It's a nice city I have heard... I think I read somewhere that his house-cleaning company was in Berlin-Tempelhof, which is not exactly the most glamorous part of the city. (I am not worthy...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I read somewhere that his house-cleaning company was in Berlin-Tempelhof, which is not exactly the most glamorous part of the city. (In jonokuchi...) Well, Tempelhof can't be THAT bad considering the mayor is living there with his husband - there certainly are worse places. And not being glamorous can only be good for a house-cleaning company no?
