Koohii stories:

1) [fuaburisu] 11-10-2005(289): A very thirsty sheep, who always lacked water, spends his days watching his fellow sheep (in the farm next door or in another pen) and being very envious of their water.

2) [dtstutz] 11-1-2008(153): Envious of the greener grass on the other side of the fence, the sheep looks down in disgust at his own dry grass lacking water.

3) [the_marshal] 27-9-2007(42): Some ppl have to try things like counting SHEEP or DRINKING a glass of water before they can sleep. Some other can just YAWN and fall asleep… you can be ENVIOUS of those one.

4) [squeaky_lill_mk] 5-5-2009(37): A sheep that lacks water is envious of those who have it.

5) [natemb] 6-6-2008(21): Unlike cotton, wool is warm even when wet, because it wicks water away from the skin. Many animals have cool adaptations and abilities that I wish I had, but I am most envious of sheep, because even if they get wet on the outside, the water is lacking UNDERNEATH. (helps to remember the water-lack part goes on the bottom).
