JUST SAYING HI.

> I'm baaaaaack! Had a great time with Doreen Simmons and Ross Mihara, plus
> my time in Hong Kong and China. Mega-blessing on the way back from Beijing
> to Washington DC last night - I asked for an upgrade from Economy to
> Business Class for Gaijingal and me - and got it! The secret is to be on a
> very full flight. If there's room in Business Class, they'll often move
> you up at your request as they always oversell each flight and want to get
> in every person they can. Try it next time you fly.

> Anyway, it's time to announce the lucky winner of the Guess How Many
> E-Mails Gaijingai Will get While Away Contest! My total amount of e-mails
> was 2,152. And the winner with an astonishing guess of 2,134...only 18
> off...is Jakusotsu! Jakusotsu was so good that when he entered he
> declared: "Now that's an easy one, even more easy than Guessing The
> Kotomitsuki:
>
> 2,134." Egad - is this guy using spyware or something???
>
>
> Now I know that Jaku-zeki already has a babe magnet Virginia Beach
> T-shirt, so Jakusotsu, if you want something else, I made a sidetrip to a
> sumo souvenir shop and can send you something from there. Otherwise, send
> me your size and address (and real name!) And I'll get a T-shirt in the
> mail to you in the next couple of weeks.
>
> I'm hoping for another contest this November. Meanwhile, I hope that I can
> finally get some sleep. We got in at midnight last night and I have yet to
> have any! Argh! And a full day today!
