Manekineko 200 Posted December 1, 2010 Just two photos from aforementioned Hakuho gallery that struck me as notable... Hakuho's interview on news of Asashoryu's intai. Taiho watching Hakuho during soken. I've seen another version of this scene among the many pictures on this Forum, but now I can't manage to find it... on it Taiho looked like a supplicant calling to a miracleworker, so I was not sure whether it really was Taiho.

Orion 431 Posted February 11, 2012 Very nice fellows -- I've seen them all before, but the trip on memory lane was delightful. Some kind of chronological order would have been helpful too. I remember it, but how many other list members would? But at least, after three days in the wilderness, I have got back to a recognisable list that allows me to sign in and reply. I'm sure that the new format will end up as God's gift to the 21st century -- but so far it's been full of -- what's the polite word for what I want to say????

Yubinhaad 10,935 Posted December 24, 2012 Just a few pictures I've come across during the year. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas. ========== OK guys, which one of you stuck that sign on the gyoji's back?? Kakuryu photobomb! After a recent spate of purse-snatchings, police describe the prime suspect as a well-built man in his late 20s... I don't care how long it takes - nobody leaves until my contact lense is found! They coulda been contenders. Who would win in a fight between Spiderman and Robocop? Elvis lives! But now prefers to be known as Torinzan. "Did you know the Jonokuchi yusho fish is only this big?" Kyokutenho: "I've heard of burying your head in the sand, but this is ridiculous." "Sagatsukasa, is that you?" Musain Bolt! 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
