Koohii stories:

1) [mimiko] 20-8-2007(176): The KING … can SEE clearly the PRESENT state of affairs in the land. (maybe he hees them in the crystal ball on the left?).

2) [indigo] 4-1-2008(67): Hey, I want my money back! This crystal ball is out of order, I can see the present instead of the future!

3) [lmcrtk] 10-4-2009(37): Many people claim that Elvis (The KING) has been SEEN walking around in the PRESENT.

4) [lucianreign] 6-12-2006(28): The king came…the king saw…thus, the king was present.

5) [dwhitman] 29-10-2007(18): The palintir shows only what's happening NOW - the present - to the all-seeing eye of Sauron. Unfortunate overlap of keywords. I sometimes write 贈 presents (#503 贈) when given this keyword for review.
