Good one. I particularly like #2.
Apr 27, 2003
good one, I was also thinking part of a shoe could be tounge or heel
May 17, 2003
Lots of fun thanks Got all but the shellfish---- duh !!!!!!
May 17, 2003
I said tongue on the shoe one. For the builder one I said hammer, ya know the malleus, that tiny little bone in your middle ear....

Question 7, "Part of a shoe" can also be correctly answered "tongue" as well as "heel" and "Soul" (sole).
For number nine, I also thought "cracks." It was incredibly easy, but very fun. I give you props.
it is surprising to know, sear editors, as to why there is no answer to question no.1....
please dont make braingle a joke... wake up.
please dont make braingle a joke... wake up.
Wake up yourself batti, the answer to question one was given free in the teaser Good teaser
good teaser i liked it muchly . i got tongue for the shoe one. and i got bum for the builder one, but i can't be blamed for thinking that!!
tongue wd work for "part of a shoe"
guts for what a soldier must have
Toe = what you do to a broken down vehicle (well, tow, actually)
Knee - what Monty Python knights said in "MP and Holy Grail" ;-)
Mouth - where the river meets the bay
Ear - response when roll is called ('Ere)
Finger - feeling something
These can be fun!

i think on the "part of a shoe" another answer should be "toungue". you said the 2 possible anwers were heel and soul. those are good, too, but a lot of people might think of toungue. it was a good teaser, though!
Ok, at the risk of embarrasing myself, I'll tell you what I honestly answered for 8, 9, and 10.
8. Tool
9. Crack
10. Sack
Honest Injun! That was all I could think of! LOL

I liked it enough to share it, many thanks.
Hah! This one was great. Made me laugh!
Good job.
Very well played out! I enjoyed figuring it out ! Though a bit on the easy side, for me, I realize that not all people who visit this site would find this teaser easy. None the less, my overall grade for this one is A+ GODD JOB and kudos to you!
liked it!
lol For what a soldier carries I guessed guns watched too much Joe Dirt I guess. Great Teaser I thought
Enjoyed the puzzle and many of the comments were fun too. I also had crack for whip (duh ..) and brains for scholors ..

Nice 1

CUTE! For scholars I thought of 'brains'.... Nice one.
Glad to see I'm not the only tainted mind I too thought "crack"
I also thought "brains" for scholars!
Great Teaser!
That was really great. I love #2!
i thought brains too, I'm teaching a class on brain teasers and I'll be using this one. Thanks
Very good teaser.
However, a no vote in Congress is a Nay, not a No.

For #5 I had brains.......I thought it was fun. Thanks
Good one. It was fun.
May 17, 2005
I agree about the congress one (how the answers heard are ayes and nays)- my only answer was "eyes." I did use the body part "nose" for the scholar one, i.e. "knows." I did just dandy on the others.
May 17, 2005
Very fun teaser, by the way. Thank you for sharing!
It was creative, but easy.
that was a great teaser!
some hard ones, some easy...
I thought that "bills" were heard in congress...

What about the toe of the shoe? Great Teaser.
that was a good one! Got me on the shellfish @ shoe tho! ("I got tongue too!")
Great teaser!! I had much fun figuring it out!!
For #8 I thought it would be hands, how can you build without any hands??
Great job!

This was a way cool teaser
I too thought crack. It was the only answer I could think of for that one.
I am sending this one to a friend.

BU HAO!!
I see the 'little emperor' is back in form, as usual a CWT. However, not all builders would use nails, but carpenters would be more likely to use them. And I go along on congress voting. The teaser did require a little thinking, which for me made it a good teaser. Thanks.
A few were easy a few were hard and a couple I guessed wrong, over all good one and good on you.
Very enjoyable I also got tongue and brain, but believe it or not I tried to use an accent and made Nays into knees. Sorry folks, no offense intended. Keep up the good work and keep them coming.
lol
that was fun
that was fun
This one is definately one of my favorites!
It made my day!

Lots of fun. It was different.

There's always at least one person who has to pick a good teaser apart.
I liked this one. I liked it a lot.

WHATTASTITCH!!! ... And I LVE the alternate answers in the comments - especially #9 "crack"!
Both clever and fun. Good job!
Great teaser! I have to agree with a couple others that "nay" is the actual response when voting no in Congress, but everything else was top notch.
I also had `brains` for scholars and `hammer` for builders so its nice to realise how different we all are and yet the same (?)
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was great fun. I too got a few different answers that would also fit.Brain for scholar for example.Good teaser.
I liked it, nice teaser.
I had brains for #6!!
I got them all except "shellfish." Couldn't think of that at all! This was a fun teaser. Loved it!

That was fun, i got sole and tongue for the shoe, but not heel!
Good 1

WOW Excellent Not too hard and lots of fun. Keep it up,A FAVORITE
this was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great job!!!!!!!!!!
This was great! Got stumped on 1 or 2, but had fun figuring them out! Keep up the good brain teasers!!
I don't like politics, so #2 was a bit difficult.
This one was fun to do! I got "brains" for #6 as well. I missed #9...duh!
No 2 stumped me, but I got most of the others. Good fun!
It was fun. I got all but 4. Is that a bad average? Oh Well!
Eyes (ayes) and Nose (no's)... good one. Got me with those!
Good teaser.
Good teaser.
Nice one - I got them all, expcept for brains for scholars!
Good one...I got all but the shellfish part.
Got most but not all.
for the one about the whips, I thought the answer was "crack" *blushes*
Nice teaser!
Nice teaser!
I guess you'd added that 'tongue and soul were acceptable' since the early posts. A perfect teaser! (Shamefully, I only got three!) Keep 'em coming!
OK I admit it, the best I could come up with for the shellfish was 'winkle'. Not a problem on the shellfish front, but I suspected that part of the anatomy wouldn't be the answer on a family site. Just in case it doesn't translate into American I'm not going to explain otherwise I'll look like this: .
YAWN
"Toe" is also a part of a shoe or boot... (Example: you can buy work boots with steel tipped toes).
I also got "brains" for scholars (common idiom in the US).

Great teaser, loved it, went straight to my favorites
I said Brains for scholars
Hi , I enjoyed this one. Missed #2
A lot of comments on the shoe one, it mentions, tongue is also acceptable & others. I put "arch"
part of a foot.
#6 could be "brains"... I counted that correct.
6/10 Could not figure out #10.
GREAT TEST !!!!!!

i liked this one. however, did not put on the thinking cap today.
The only one I didn't get was lashes. Loved this teaser, lets have more. Thanks
Good quiz! But I didn't get the whips question1
good one
Good one! I thought the "shellfish" answer was 'scallop' (scalp).
Fun-thanks.
Fun-thanks.
Nice and easy...

I really loved it!
but does a soul count as a body part?? :\

speed queen, you naughty girl
I didn't get the whip one either. I cracked up laughing at the comments of those who answered it "crack"!!! Fun one!
wayy cute
I thought 7 was brains, 8 was hammer (a bone in the ear), and 9 was crack
Alright..my take is #2 is crap(as an answer)# young human, what else are baby calves?#4 GOY it Mussell..#5 feet..#6Chelsea...I'm thinkin BRAINS TOO!#7 Heel..#8MUSCLES,,, hey I REQUIRE THAT..#9skin????IT IS HUMAN...WHIPS ..LEATHER=skin............#10 SOULDERS CARRY ANY HUMAN PART,S THE LAST TIME , PRESENTLY,,,,EVEN HEADS..SAD. Hey not to be a DOWNER,,, this was fun,,, but alot could be miscontrued
Fun, but I'm thinking the scholars one could also be brain and for number 2, I think voice works too. Technically it should be your voice being heard in Congress! (Even though you hit it on the spot in thinking crap...)
very funny and i liked it alot. good job..
got all but 2 and ten
ejoyed iy

How fortunate that we get to see the same old teasers over and over and over.
Fun quiz.
Fun! Got 'em all but the whip one...I thought crack too!
Doehead--now I see that you can be creative, too! I do agree with you some. I enjoy the new and fresh material when it appears. Repeats may be o.k. for new people and sometimes I enjoy seeing them again, too, but maybe not quite as often?
hehe!! I may be a few years late but gidgies post on 17th May 2004 is hilarious!! that is exactly what my head kept thinking.. haha..
I have only been braingling for a short while- so repeats are not an issue yet..

The body part of the foot is actually spelled 'sole', not soul. Would submit correction, but another correction is currently submitted.
I came up with tongue for part of the shoe and brains for scholers.
I too said hammer for #8. I thought of the hammer in the ear.
Good quiz.
Good quiz.
Hands could also be used for number 5. It's a measure of distance used to measure the height of a horse.
I also thought of hammer for the builder one. And I am among those who take slight issue with eyes and nose as the actual terms they use are Yeah and Nay. But, whatever, overall it was a good teaser
Cute one. I didn't get lashes. I don't know why I missed this one again.
Good but you spelt soul wrong. The bottom of your foot is a sole.
8/10; Fun and entertaining teaser. I missed #6 and #7 and also got brains and toe for those two. I think those should also be considered acceptable answers.
