Fun and easy...Good one !!
American's overseas? American's WHAT overseas? WHAT American's WHAT overseas?
Or do you perhaps mean:
Americans overseas?
What on earth is that apostrophe doing there? How can we expect people to get this sort of thing right if people like you don't!?

Excellent!
i dont know pepp.... i got them all except beaver..... it kept trying to think of an animal type characteristic of a beaver , IE wild or dam-building ....since the only clue left waws 'AGREE" I thought maybe "enraged" beaver but it didnt fit.... then I saw EAGER BEAVER.... ok that works......thanks for a good brain work out today, keep em coming
Good teaser for the most part. I was confused by the American's overseas also, so didn't get that one. Otherwise, good teaser.
I sadly have no brain teaser talent. But it was pretty creative of you to think of it like that. Keep up the good work.
Good teaser, very creative. Thank you for a brain workout. Also didn't think the American's overseas was a good clue, I'm sure you could have gone after a description such as 'pulls sharply', or something of that nature. But still clever.
Mine did not have one about American Overseas - I had one about Beaver and got It - Eager-

Great teaser, smiled the whole time.
That was a fun brain teaser! I really enjoyed it!
Excellent Teaser - well done
Whoa-- Good one.. I got lost real quick!
That was good
I see Anagrams and find them
difficult (for Me) so I didn't really try. It's a hodiday here 2day do I took an anagram vacation.
Kudos to everbody who got the answers.

I gree with Brainster - just right!
I only couldn't unscramble the beaver thing. That apostrophe in number 6 threw me off, too.
Also was thrown off by
American's overseas...
American's overseas...
I loved this teaser. It took me a minute to try and solve it while at work. But I got them all. Eager beaver made me chuckle. I too was originally thinking of the animal. Thanks for the fun!!!
Thanks for a great one! Really keeps the neurons exercised.
It may sound picky to point out the misused apostrophe, but it did matter to a lot of us old-fashioned grammaticians...

Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful! I'm not even an anagram person and I loved this teaser!
nicely done. I found it somewhat challenging since it was my first time with this type of puzzle.
Really enjoy this type of teaser
Got them with just the right amount of figuring, but beaver had me thinking of the animal . Again-loved it THX

I loved that one, too! Thanks

the type I like to do!
More, please!

Enjoyed it again. With my terrible memory the reruns seem new to me.
The first time around, I didn't like this teaser because I hadn't had my coffee yet and was in a grumpy mood, so didn't even try to solve it. Just rated it difficult and went on. But this time, I was more willing to apply a little brain power and got them all after some cogitation. Thanks for a good teaser.
perfect amopunt of difficulty for my mondya brain! awesome work!
Eager Beaver? Really? -.-
That took a bit of doing, but it sure was fun and I got them all. I guess you have to be older and through some wars to have gotten Americans overseas. That came to me right away. I remember the "Yanks" Thanks for a very good teaser.
A big hand for BABE. She amazes me. HIP HIP HOORAY !!!
Great teaser! Thanks for posting.
Very fun, I got them all, and "eager beaver" was the last one I figured out, so it was kind of a surprise ending because the whole time I kept seeing "type of beaver" and thinking "I don't think I even know any species of beavers..."
I gave up on hinge, but got the rest. I think I sometimes give up too easily, but I still enjoyed this very much!
Nice one. Got most of them
Ugh, I should've known #3...but a better clue for #4 for be "Like a beaver." You had me trying to think of some specific breed of beaver rather than an adjective used to describe them.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser; I got all of them very quickly but enjoyed figuring them out.
I had a lot of fun solving this! Hope to see more like this!
This is definitely one of the best ones I've seen in a while. Great difficulty level. I didn't get all of them, but after seeing the answers, I really felt I could have with a little more time put in. Great job!
