Koohii stories:

1) [Samchan] 4-8-2008(319): Hint: This kanji is NOT soil on top of mend, as Heisig claims - that would duplicate one of the strokes. Instead, it is 10 on top of mend. So my story is: If you run 10 miles, you will need to mend your socks!

2) [poseid0n] 11-7-2007(33): The sports ground needs MENDING after the game as the players have been RUNNING around which has caused the ground to be chopped up.

3) [jonjimbo2000] 11-4-2007(29): The soil needs mending after the cross-country run.

4) [fjolnir] 6-12-2009(18): If you run 10 miles you'll need to mend your socks.

5) [kanjihito] 16-5-2009(9): With ten things to mend, you've got to run to get it all done.
