Koohii stories:

1) [astridtops] 14-1-2007(36): I threw my dart at a pheasant during the hunt, but hit a turkey instead.

2) [oregum] 14-1-2009(5): A pheasant is like a small wild TURKEY except you can kill it with a DART.

3) [perrin4869] 22-5-2011(4): I tried to kill the turkey with a dart, but a pheasant, who was his good friend, jumped in between to save the turkey. Pheasant turned out to be just as good though.

4) [blannk] 23-1-2010(3): I had the pheasant clearly in view when I threw the dart but wouldn't you know it at precisely the wrong moment a turkey ran between us & became the 7th one down in RtK3.

5) [Django] 30-12-2009(2): Cupid may be the god of love, but he's also one rather spoilt child. We brought him a turkey for dinner the other day, and he just sulked, saying he'd only have pheasant. What an ungrateful deity!!
