Thanks to Mari for the picture.

Haha I am so easily amused
Is that for real? It’s a classic!
I got my pic taken with him when he was a low ranking rikshi. I keep it up in the school so the kids get a kick outta seeing teacher with the Yokozuna.
I tried to get a pic with musashimaru who hails out of 808 (Hawaii) like me but he blew me off. Asashoryu was very cool and took a pic with a big ole smile.
Good peep in my book
Reflection don’t feel right, but it is so darn funny. ^o^
Yeah I don’t think it’s real cause Koizumi’s expression looks like it doesn’t match, but at any rate it’s pretty funny.
I’ve just spent the last 10 mins looking at it and the more i look the more i have no reason to say it isn’t …. would be interested to know now.
Thats gotta be photoshopped. The head angles dont match the reflections, and their faces look too much like theyve been liquified or spherified in photoshop.
Even in the distorted (phony?) reflection, Koizumi still looks cooler than any other Japanese PM to come down the pike, or likely any to come in the future.
Back to Graceland, all the way, baby!
Is photoshop because the angle just doesn’t match… But I like it!
