This is topical because it seems Ozawa and Tanigaki have Kan by the plums too.

Plum sake and other kinds of cuisines are traditionally preserved and promoted in Japan and abroad. PM Kaoto Kan has his time and is ready for his next destination. Two Japanese ladies, in their traditional costumes, reflect Japan's combined virtues of tradition and modern society. Two ladies are also supporting PM in their gratitudes and respects. Plum job is a good sign.

Stop horsing around with plums and devote all his time to fixing the meltdowns and saving the country from a complete nuclear nightmare with increased radiation levels.
