ffoppia Feb 10, 2006	wouldnt have been able to do it without the hint...nice one
luckythirteen Feb 10, 2006	cute!
GradualDazzle Feb 10, 2006	Great teaser, but the eye surgery you're referring to is probably "Lasik" with a "k"... "Lasix" with an "x" is a drug used to rid the body of excess fluid. Other than that, though, it's a great teaser.
Ouchy1 Feb 10, 2006	it was hard, i had to look at the answer, lol. but it was a very good teaser!
morning_rain08 Feb 10, 2006	GradualDazzle is right....
norcekri Feb 10, 2006	Lasix is a trade name for Lasik surgery. I got literature from them when I had mine done (by another surgeon).

moriarty94 Oct 04, 2007	Great teaser. My favorite so far. Got it but it took a little while.
katjojo Oct 04, 2007	What?? I totally did not get it. I quess I did not realize you could use only part of the word.
bradon182001 Oct 04, 2007	Really enjoyed this one. I got the right answer, but didn't connect on the "numbers" in the words. Very clever.
doehead Oct 04, 2007	I got totally lost on this one.
4princesses Oct 04, 2007	I guess I just don't have the patience for thist ype of teaser. It appears to be an answer and I just don't like to look long enough to figure it out. Oh well! Well done!
kober Oct 04, 2007	"Play Date" is the only item in the Group B with two syllables, just like all the items in Group A. I never even noticed the clever title, or got close to the embedded numbers, because I was so sure that I had it by counting syllables! (I might change "Play Date" to something with three or more syllables, just to remove ambiguity.) Good teaser!
Yorkshire-Boy Oct 04, 2007	excellent...I couldn't work it out, but it made me think for a long time...I'm glad so many people said 'one oF OUR favorites'
saleprice Oct 04, 2007	bloody heck that was tough for this time of day !! LOL my poor old brain was already `out to lunch` haha

UptheHill Oct 04, 2007	Too dificult, need more coffee!!
fatster Oct 04, 2007	I got it!!...(except for FOUR TEENy mistakes).
2ndhandrose Oct 04, 2007	This is one Teriffic Teaser !! I didn't get it but loved it when I saw your answer Don't get how play date is 2 SYLLABLES.? Isn't a syllablepart of one word, like "unbelievable" like Your Teaser could be broken into syllables. PLAY DATE is just 2 wds.? Anyhoo , LOVED IT - KEEP WRITING MORE
scallio Oct 04, 2007	After I recognized that all of Group A were two syllables, I picked PLAY DATE as the answer... didn't even notice those numbers thrown in there. Great teaser!
auntiesis Oct 04, 2007	I missed the answer by a mile. Great teaser. Very cleverly written. My hat is off to you. Thanks.
locutus13ds Oct 04, 2007	Whoa! Didn't get it, I need my eyes examined!
mondayschild59 Oct 04, 2007	I would have never gotten this one right. I think I fried my brain cells on the Quiz. I will admit. Once you showed them to me, I went :duh:
BikerDank Oct 04, 2007	GR8 teaser!
jabdr Oct 04, 2007	ARGH! The hint was the end of my trying. I obviously have no logic so I knew I'd never get it. Great teaser Very, very clever.
snownvegas Oct 04, 2007	Good ONE

vlerma Oct 05, 2007	You got me on that one. Good job. Very cleaver.
_miss_glamorous Oct 05, 2007	ummm...didn't really make sense at first
here2 Jan 09, 2009	very nice. Thanks.
dalfamnest Oct 04, 2010	Well done - can't believe you got me ... I've submitted a similar one and still missed this. Mondays...bah!
thecatladycac Oct 04, 2010	I also chose "play date" because it contains 2 syllables - as does "Lasix" (which should be "Lasik") and even your hint word "logic". Interesting Teaser.
BeanSC Oct 04, 2010	Well done!
patiencewithaP Oct 04, 2010	Fun...even though I didn't get it! Great teaser!
precious1026 Oct 04, 2010	WTTF, the answer is in the Title. I enjoyed this Teaser, but to answer it correctly wasn't, going to happen. Who Thought This Funny?
gaylewolf Oct 07, 2010	Great teaser - well written!! Thanks
