schmedley9 Oct 31, 2006	they were pretty hard
cuteandditzy Oct 31, 2006	It took me a few tries but I got them by process of elimination. It was fun. Good job.
bradon182001 Oct 31, 2006	Wow!! This was a really good teaser. Took a lot of mental effort to find the matchup that made sense.
Synlapse Oct 31, 2006	You really know how to mince words. Good job. Took me about 10 minutes to work it out.
hoyty Oct 31, 2006	Well it took me more than ten minutes. I got threads from 'shed' and 'tar' and handle from 'hen' and 'lad' That left my last two impossible to get but I was too stubborn to give up. Great teaser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wandering_goat Oct 31, 2006	Very fun! I couldn't get them all since I combined "eight" with "wing", giving me weighting and leaving me with the impossible combination of hen and itch. Oh well!
RRAMMOHAN Oct 31, 2006	A fun teaser, interesting and easy, I thought! Good work by the composer! Keep it up!
zaya Oct 31, 2006	Loved it!! Tough one, took me some time to get them all.
Pizzazz2u Oct 31, 2006	I enjoy playing around with words and figures! Superb teaser. Keep up the fantastic work!
wordmama Oct 31, 2006	I LOVE lanuguage teasers!! I got 8/9; did not know the word paladin! Thanks for the fun! Keep up the good work, pep!
2old4this Oct 31, 2006	It is great that you were able to make a teaser that made you think out of ordinary words (except for Paladin , but that was OK). Using the ordinary to make something challenging is the best. Excellent job.
locutus13ds Oct 31, 2006	wHOA, COULDN'T GET EM ALL , PALAADIN STUMPED ME, AND REVENUE(GOOD ONE). aNYWAY HAPPY HOLOWEENIE!
heyman Oct 31, 2006	Very fun!
vlerma Oct 31, 2006	Wow Peppa, you outdid yourself with this one. Really creative. Got part of them but not all. You probalby did as much work on this one as we who tried to solve it. Great job.
jcann Oct 31, 2006	This was amazing! I couldn't get it at all--maybe being tired after a really busy day had something to do with it. But after seeing the answers, I see a strategy I could have used. I'd like to see another like this.
hoyty Oct 31, 2006	I like doing the Jumble in the newspaper but find it way too easy. This is a nice twist since you don't know which in Group A to combine with those in Group B. I would like to see more.
FeaerFactorY666 Nov 01, 2006	nice!
Qrystal Dec 04, 2006	Wow, this was tougher than what it seemed on first glance. It took me several minutes to find even one that inserted into another -- but then it was WITCHING that got me started (cackle!) A few others fell into place, and then more, and then ... all of them!! I had to look up "scathed" because I've only heared of "unscathed", and I wasn't so sure about "heighten" at first but then realized it was indeed a real word (unlike "weighten", which crossed my mind before the "witching" took over!) Yippee!! This was fun because it was challenging but not impossible. Good job on creating it!!
patiencewithaP Oct 31, 2009	That was tough! Very creative! Thanks for posting!
UptheHill Oct 31, 2009	NICE1!!!
auntiesis Nov 01, 2009	Wow! That was a toughie. Very well done. Thanks ( I think)
cutebug Oct 31, 2012	Time consuming and fun.
gaylewolf Oct 31, 2012	Tricky and I LOVED it!! Thanks!
iggy39 Oct 31, 2012	Not very easy but I had fun with it. Didn't do too bad. It took some thought and that is what it is all about getting our minds working.
giuseppemccarth Nov 02, 2012	Ha, I did Hitchen, and Weighting.
