Another
interest that a lot of our members share is the Japanese national
sport of Sumo. Thanks to the magic of Cable TV, we're able to
watch and cheer for our favorite "sumotori". We make
it a point to visit sumo sites on the net, and the kids also engage
in "mock wanpkau sumo", a very loose adaptation of the actual
sport (after all, we don't really have the proper skills and equipment for an actual sumo match!). We like sumo because it is a REAL wrestling bout (unlike
WWE wrestling, which is fake; but which we also enjoy) and because
it is much harder to win at (especially if you're up against a
much bigger and heavier opponent). We're regular sumo fanatics!
