Koohii stories:

1) [dingomick] 13-3-2007(206): A boy floats his toy boat in a gully and imagines it as an immense ship.

2) [rtkrtk] 19-2-2008(39): Aargh, hard to keep this separate from boat. How about this: the phrase "shape up or ship out!" This phrase originally meant that a soldier had better get his act together, or else face being shipped off into a combat zone. Here we see a poor WW-I soldier who has been shipped off to a combat zone. He's riding in the boat overseas to fight in the trenches (gulley).

3) [snallygaster] 27-5-2008(29): A ship is a boat so big, it makes a river look like a gully.

4) [szreter] 5-7-2008(23): A boat in a gully looks like a huge ship.

5) [yuriehoshii] 1-6-2011(8): THUYỀN : A SHIP IS A BIG BOAT HAS AT LEAST 8 BOXES (CARGO HOLD ).
