Don Quixote purchased thirty cooking tops in the airplane's bathroom to build new armor out of them. Now the question is: how does he get them home? Finally he has a good idea: He spreads out a towel on the floor, stacks the thirty cooking tops as a pyramid and pulls the towel with a belt. It works! This way he can bring them back to his place.

Mnemonic symbol: 舟 looks like the tower of a yellow submarine. In front of the outhouse (ou1), James II of England (zh) stands next to his yellow submarine (舟) and asks you: will you swallow the blossom (⺀) and continue your quiet life? Or will you swallow the red pill (丹) and follow him on his adventures in the submarine?
