MTK_90 Jun 23, 2005	LOL-WHAT A GREAT ONE
bhssoccer23 Jun 23, 2005	Thanx, I thought everybody would think it was too easy, this is my first to get accepted! Thanks for the encouragement!
irock3001 Jun 23, 2005	this is an odd teaser, but i still love it! nice job!
gummbypal Jun 26, 2005	I could have looked at that forever and not got it, until I read the answer and DOH. On my faves, well done
Dustar90 Jun 26, 2005	ALITTLE HARD ..... but i liked it ! VERY sharp
(user deleted) Jun 27, 2005	very fun, kind of hard. I really enjoyed. I hope u don't mind me commenting b cuz I have submitted a teaser but I'm new. Anyway, great teaser
(user deleted) Jun 27, 2005	*sry, I have never submitted a teaser
bhssoccer23 Jun 30, 2005	Glad ya'll liked it!
buttons03 Jul 01, 2005	This is a great first teaser. I always think that mine are too easy, but then I have gotten at least a question mark full, and most of the time more. (I have only gotten three approved, so its still too soon to tell for sure) But my point is that you think its easy because you thought of it. Besides, even if it is easy, I like those too.....if they all were hard it would get boring for me, because I don't get many hard ones! Sorry for the long comment, and GREAT JOB!! Keep it up!
goosh Jul 02, 2005	darn my small vocabulary! lol- i would have got it if i knew what that word meant-thanx 4 the leason! jk
just_moi Jul 08, 2005	loved this one! well done

schatzy228 Oct 18, 2005	very good job i was focusing on the A L S and overlooked the P i dont miss many , but this one got by me
scm14 Nov 20, 2005	I was thinking back slap...never occured to me that slap was PALS backward!!! And I didn't know what pinnacle meant. Learned something!!! Very clever...good job!!!
bhssoccer23 Dec 23, 2005	Thanks guys!
paul726 Feb 24, 2006	very good!
bhssoccer23 Feb 24, 2006	Thanks!
jeffmartin134 May 08, 2006	i had kno idea wat the word ment
calmsavior May 12, 2006	(dont look if you want to keep enjoying the rebus section.) teaser #23963, meet #18827 and #30383.
GebbieRose Jun 11, 2006	i know what you're talking about, calmsavior - same answer, different rebus - but that's bound to happen sooner or later. Just enjoy the creativity of the different brainglers!
bhssoccer23 Jul 11, 2006	Thanks everyone!
coolpainter Mar 23, 2007	Saw the PALS...Just couldn't piece it together....Good One!
gnosys Mar 23, 2007	I was thinking "big slap on the back" -- since the big letters spelled slap backwards... admittedly, it was a stretch
anion Mar 23, 2007	I didn't know pinnacle meant high places but I did get the pals. Pretty good teaser.
puttumup Mar 23, 2007	way to easy yawn.
kitty728 Mar 23, 2007	oh goody - i learned 2 new vocabulary words - rebus and pinnacle - had i known what they meant i may have been able to get the braingle - oh well maybe next time tks 4 a good 1....
katjojo Mar 23, 2007	Hard for me, But fun!! Good Job!
bradon182001 Mar 23, 2007	Never would have gotten this in a million years. I didn't even see Pals. Guess I should have "taken a closer look." Great rebus. Very clever.
cassiemark Mar 23, 2007	That was good - you got me!
starrychelx Mar 23, 2007	I normally don't get rhebuses... and I didn't get this one until I clicked to see the answer, and it clicked in my head (before the answer loaded)! Very good one indeed!
FatHead Mar 23, 2007	That was easy! PALS was found in pinnacles, so that could only mean one thing....
zips5000 Mar 23, 2007	gots the pals .. wasnt thinkin high places. good one.
craniac Mar 23, 2007	I got as far as pals on a mountain, but the stretch from there to the answer was just too abstruse for me.
shawneeo Mar 23, 2007	Very great, bhs!!! I was thinking all around the answer, and also I got the "back slap" idea too, "slap on the back", "pals on the way up, slap on the way back" LOL, but for some reason, the popular phrase "friends in high places" NEVER occurred, at least not in the time I allotted, which was admittedly, not much. btw, bhs, you WILL get negative comments at some point because some people ALWAYS make negative comments. DONT let it bother you one little bit! It was a great teaser, and I'm gonna send it to grandma, who I think will probably get it. But she gets them all!
auntiesis Mar 23, 2007	Got the pinnacle, even got the pals, but that was it... Just couldn't put them together. Great rebus, made me think more than I wanted to. Love these teasers, but I don't always get them.
speedqueenkmw Mar 23, 2007	ditto, auntiesis. At first I was reading pals backward as slap
cloughme Mar 23, 2007	Good Job!!
leroy_h Mar 23, 2007	WE NEED MORE OF THESE!!!!!!!!!!THIS IS A GREAT ONE TO FIGURE OUT.
frozenrose_885 Mar 23, 2007	I thought maybe pinnacles was a made-up word
parayik Mar 23, 2007	Funny!
jacstop Mar 23, 2007	By far, this is one of the best teasers. Now the question again has to surface...why are we duplicating teaser submissions. This was submitted way back in 2005
breathesunshine Mar 23, 2007	Fun one. Got it right away. And just a reminder, some of us are fairly new to the site so this is new to us!
jabdr Mar 23, 2007	Great teaser! Braingle Rebus 1000 - me, still batting 0 And I've been trying for quite a while Good job
nerdyiscool Mar 23, 2007	ha ha very funny!
masquerademe235 Mar 23, 2007	cute!
Badger Mar 23, 2007	Easy, but fun! Thanks for submitting. Like I've said in the past, the rebus category is definitely one that you can get better at with practice (at least for me). Didn't like them at first, now some of my faves!
Swordoffury1392 Mar 23, 2007	Smart teaser!
bhssoccer23 Mar 23, 2007	Thank you everybody!! I'm glad I checked my email today, as I haven't checked it in a while (128 unread messages ), and saw that I had tons of comments, and that my teaser was teaser of the day!!! Yay! I can't believe it! Thanks for the comments guys!
Madelulabelle Mar 24, 2007	Good teaser, I got the words, although i hadn't quite pieced the phrase together when saw the first part of the answer. And all you commenters; who doesn't know the meaning of 'pinnacle'??? I'm 12, and the fact that adults who have supposedly had a ful education would have such a pitiful vocabulary.
Madelulabelle Mar 24, 2007	*Sorry, I meant "full", I some how dropped my second "L".
bhssoccer23 Mar 24, 2007	Well, I for one am glad that some people don't know the meaning, because then more people would be getting the answer! I don't think it's that bad that some people don't know the meaning; it's not really something you say everyday. Oh well, thanks for the comment.
vlerma Mar 24, 2007	Great rebus. Keep up the great work. More please.
jamy400 Mar 25, 2007	I loved it!!! Once I saw the answer I laughed!!
Qrystal Mar 26, 2007	Huh. I saw the pinnacles, and then the next thing I saw were ALPS, all mixed up ... and I couldn't do much else with that. I'm no good at rebus teasers, so I figured I'd consider myself "close" if it had anything to do with mountains. And it wasn't. Phooey. oH Well. Neat teaser, just the same.
bhssoccer23 Mar 26, 2007	Qrystal, that's a good way of thinking about it. I probably would have said something close to that if I were solving it, because the first thing I think of when I see the word 'pinnacle' is Pinnacle 1 insurance, and its logo is a mountain, so I always think of a mountain. Anyway, thanks for the comment everyone!Vlerma, I'll try to think up some more for you!
oddrey Jul 13, 2008	Wow! this is a really really really good one! VERY nice. gonna have to check out more of yours.
crazy10man Mar 23, 2010	I like this teaser. It makes you think. And, yes, I got the correct answer. I am so amazed that such a common word as pinnacle flummoxed so many folks. I guess its not such a common word after all.
doehead Mar 23, 2010	As we turn the corner; what do we see, another worn and old teaser. But I guess thats par for the course. Wake up editors and give us some new material!!!
TallTimber Mar 23, 2010	Not a bad rebus. Took me a bit, but I figured it out.
patiencewithaP Mar 23, 2010	Got it right away! Good one!
avonma Mar 23, 2010	I saw "pinacles" and knew that word. Then I saw "PALS." But somehow my brain hiccupped and I started thinking "predicament" and came up with "A friend need is a friend indeed," and went with that without thinking it through. In too big a hurry. Bummer. Good one, though.
Babe Mar 23, 2013
HABS2933 Mar 23, 2013	meh.
cutebug Mar 23, 2013	This one has been around long enough that everyone should know the answer.
gaylewolf Mar 25, 2013	I liked this one and got it rather quickly!
