Koohii Story 1 "Notes: 珀 (not in Heisig) means ""amber"". Story for both: A bus is stopped at some traffic lights in Japan. Inside, King Henry VIII and Barry White are arguing over whether the lights are yellow or amber. The lights change to ""Go"", and Mick Jagger (stone) then joins a new argument over whether the lights are blue or green. They compromise on blue-green."
