Koohii stories:

1) [trikatu] 28-2-2007(219): You have to watch your step when moving your leg on a watery day.

2) [smithsonian] 16-5-2007(80): So, we've walked on the moon, but it's going to take a pirate with a wooden leg, with a huge supply of cooling water to land on the sun and take that "one small step for a man".

3) [wazato] 5-11-2007(47): Use Floatingweed5's story, except, to remember the positioning of water and sun, picture the pirate pouring water into his mouth with a wagging tongue. How refreshing while doing his step aerobics.

4) [Floatingweed5] 10-10-2007(44): The peg leg pirate, wanting to get fit, signs up for some step aerobic classes. Here is is clutching his bottle of water and stepping up and down from his step platform in the island sunshine.

5) [herman] 23-11-2008(36): This is better remembered as "step on" or trample. I picture a puddle of water with the sun reflected in it (to get the water above sun positioning), then you step on the puddle with your foot to trample the image.
