[sumo] Shoryu in Dewa now, etc.

[Barbara Ann]

Thank you for your kind words, Doreen.

Re: Dewanoumi, I just passed by about 15  minutes ago and then reporters ( a
horde of them) were all outside interviewing Homasho. Guess I'll take a walk
back.

Hi all,

The yokozuna walked into Dewanoumi about 25 minutes ago.  He was there
only last Friday, too, when I was taking four young American friends to
see asageiko.  Busy man.

BTW, I enjoyed Barbara's blog on the Soken. I was over on the West
side, in much the same sort of seat. So far I have always managed to
get on the hanamichi -- not good for  general photographs but I manage
an occasional great close-up. This time I had a nice one of Kotooshu
putting on the knee strapping, when an elderly fan right behind me
started calling out his name,  and set off three other people including
a little kid. Naturally the ozeki turned in the opposite direction to
the rude noise-makers, who spoiled everybody's chances.

I'm mystified about the comments on the absence of Tochiazuma's press
conference and NHK interview; I swear I saw it briefly on the 7:00
news, and a long version on the 9:00; and also this morning on NHK
World. (I record news programs when I'm out or asleep.)

Back to the grind.
