Koohii stories:
1) [dingomick] 2-9-2007(198): On the troical island of JOU, they brew whiskey while wearing grass skirts (top hats and scarves too). (Image: the strangely dresses islanders stirring a pot of brew. Careful fermentation (#1430 酵)).
2) [raulir] 26-12-2006(79): To me, the grass skirt is composed of six celery sticks and a scarf. Apparently you can brew whiskey out of grass skirts. No wonder it tastes horrible.
3) [fuaburisu] 11-1-2007(66): Note : up to frame 1530, the kanji share the same chinese reading (JOU), so don't hesitate to group them into the same environment. Here we have the "brew"-man, who brews some kind of whiskey using palm tree leaves. Instead of collecting them himself, he just buys the grass skirts from the people on this tropical island where he lives (which you may name the JOU island, after the chinese reading).
4) [Virtua_Leaf] 10-1-2008(27): Grass Skirt primitive: Picture some Hawaiian girls, wearing grass skirts and tropical scarfs (or leis), doing a dance. "3, 4, 5, 6 pick up all the celery sticks!".
5) [alantin] 5-7-2008(22): This brew of whiskey will cause you wear grass skirts and dance around like a maniac!
