Aloha, Hafa Adai and Konnichi Wa!

Q&A from the World

Aloha, Hafa Adai and Konnichi Wa!
by Jimmy Collins, 11/24/96

I was formerly a TV sports reporter here on Guam. I 'introduced' the island to TV coverage of Sumo. In that time I learned a lot about the sport and remain intrigued to this day. I enjoy watching you more than almost everyone else. My other faves are Musashimaru and Taknohana. I was wondering, since you play music yourself, if you keep in touch with the latest music coming out of Hawaii? If so who are your favorite bands? And, being Samoan, do you like Kapena's rendition of Talimaia? Please write back and let me know. Also, do you have any ideas where I can stay during the next basho? I can fly TO Japan very cheaply (my wife is a flight attendant with Continental Micronesia) but I am concerned about the cost of lodging. Hope to see you and the rest of the rikishi on Guam for an exhibition basho some time. Take care, good luck and Mahalo!
