Ahwww CRAP!! I forgot to write a blog last month! Damn it!! That is the first month I have missed in literally, years. Well, there goes my record. It was just a personal record, but it was a record none-the-less. I guess I may as well start all over with this month's installment of "I have a Blog." Maybe I should change the name since an era has ended? I don't see that happening right this instant so I'll get on with what I want to say today.
You're probably wondering why there is a picture of two sumo wrestlers above. Well I'll tell you the tale. This morning I was recruited by the radio station I DJ at to drive around a couple of sumo wrestlers from Idaho Falls. The idea was that we show up at a few locations around town and give away free tickets to watch a sumo wrestling tournament that is in town this weekend. Of course they were decked out in the traditional sumo mawashi, or loin cloth just to make things more interesting. So I loaded up two large naked men into my mid-sized sedan, a Ford Taurus to be specific, and we cruised around town. We stopped at a couple grocery stores, a coffee shop, and the town square. Once we got to a location, the sumos would get out of the car and start doing the traditional sumo stomp while I gave live updates on the radio over the phone. Of course this attracted a lot of stares and curious on-lookers. The first people who wanted free tickets, got 'em, and more than a few attractive ladies stopped by for photos. Seriously ladies, how often do you get the opportunity to pose with a real live sumo wrestler? You better take that opportunity if it ever comes up. Yeah...you better take it! So that's how I spent my morning; freaking people out with some large, nearly naked men.
Oh yeah, just a side note, if you are ever riding shotgun in my car, you may notice the slight stinging scent of body oder in your nostrils. I gotta find my Lysol spray.
