Koohii stories:

1) [Elphalpo] 4-9-2008(174): For the condor primitive: A condor is like a vulture, but twice as big and it lives near mountains (a suitable place for such a majestic bird). For swing: I'm sitting on a swing when a condor comes by and picks up the whole swing set with its big finger-like claws and now I'm swinging in mid-air. Weeeeeeeee!!!!!

2) [akrodha] 15-6-2007(141): I keep swinging gleefuly on the talons of the soaring condor until he slices off my fingers and sends me plummeting.

3) [Codexus] 8-2-2008(27): I don't recommend using king as a primitive for condor, the stroke order is wrong. Vulture Dry Mountain or even Vulture Two Mountains should work better.

4) [DrJones] 31-3-2008(22): This kanji is for tremors and shakes. It perfectly illustrates the good ol' joke of shaking a beverage tin can in your fingers. And then laugh when another person opens the can with his/her nails (claws) and gets totally soaked! (Tin can loses the left stroke because it has no pull tab).

5) [noname] 18-3-2008(13): I am sure you have heard this on the trains in Japan: 「これから揺れますので、ご注意ください」 So imagine that the train does SWING and SHAKE. This gives ちかん's the opportunity to pretend like they fell and grab a feel on a nearby girl like a CONDOR would with their claws.
