OK then. Amakaze has a birthday. 26. That is all I will be saying about this photo.

I want that print from the bag on a shirt. I was always annoyed in Japan about how some great stuff was just not available to buy. I could photochop it and fix it, then print it.

Not a pic but what I thought was funny as all hell was an article on Takayasu and the "darkness of body hair".

"Suujo" - sumo maniac - talent, Yamane Chika, made note of the new Ozeki's power during Nagoya basho.  One way to measure his condition is to check the hair on Takayasu's body.  The thinner and lighter it appears, the better he will perform sumo.  "The eyes are bright and he's hairy like a cute bear.  But, the state of Takayasu's sumo is good when his body hair is thinning."  The proof/logic? behind this is that hairs will fall out from repeated rubbing and colliding during butsugari practice.  The more butsugari keiko, the better his basho results.  Chika confirmed this finding with Takayasu himself in which he replied, "Yes, that's right!" with a smile.

Asakayama-oyakata and Kaito in Sado on the water-dohyo

That is not Kaio, I think it should be Kaito from Asakayama heya as the title proper.

Kaito arrives later, the video starts with some "oyakata", but yes, not Kaio, the spectator got it wrong in the comments as well - later talk about Kaio - it's Onogawa-oyakata (Daido) http://sado-tabi.blog.jp/archives/71570897.html

I'm not sure what Ichi is trying to determine. Is Shodai ripe?

It's good to see them right next to each other clearly. I kept thinking Aoiyama was bigger. Perhaps he should loose fat and bulk up like Tochi, he might be more agile and powerful. Kaisei is Kaisei, A or B.
