[sumo] Hanamichi Report

[Jeff Anderson]

Ross Mihara: Here's Riyo Ohta with a hanamichi report.  This one's with
Gaijingai.
 
Riyo: Gaijingai, omedeto.
 
Gaijingai: Huh? What for?  I mean, thank you very much.
 
Riyo: You won the Salary Cap Game!  What was the secret to you success?
 
Gaijingai: I did my best.
 
Riyo: ZAP!
 
Gaijingai: Ok. OK. I put Asashoryu at top dollar.
 
Riyo: You also had a fine 12-3 record in the Upside Down Hoshitori contest.
 
Gaijingai: I had put myself at 6 points.
 
Riyo: ZAP!
 
Gaijingai: OK, I'd like to thank Tamakasuga.
 
Riyo: Plus you went 10-5 in Seki Toto after starting 1-5.  Nine in a row!
 
Gaijingai: I would like to thank Tamakasuga and Buyuzan for certain wins for
their daily opponents.
 
Riyo: So what was your overall secret for your success?
 
Gaijingai: I put on a LOT of weight between bashos.
 
Riyo: So I noticed.
 
Gaijingai.The other day I went to the Tama Zoo and the elephants threw me
peanuts.
 
Riyo: Anooooo....
 
Gaijingai: And last night to celebrate my good basho, I went to a dance and
made the band skip.
 
Riyo: Eitoooo....
 
Gaijingai: In fact, I recently took off for a few days from the heya.  My
oyakata thought I was lost and put my picture on milk cartons. It took up
all four sides.
 
Riyo: Back to you, Ross!
 
Best regards,
Jeffrey Anderson
