Loved this one! Very good job!

Wow, this has a way higher rating than I thought it would!
I'm going to try and get about 5 of these, the Billy Bob teasers got really old, really fast. I have the second one of these in the Queue (submitted yesterday). Hopefully it will be accepted in a week.
It really depends on how the people like them for how many I'm doing, since you all seem to enjoy them, I'll try to make as many as possible
Thanks for all the comments! They really do make a difference.

Iloved this! I had a lot of fun figuring them out. Made my short break at work enjoyable
Keep them coming!!!!
Keep them coming!!!!
Thank god my teacher never did that to me! Excellent teaser, it was a lot of fun despite being pretty easy. I would have really liked to see more variety in the clues; seeing "a fenced enclosure for animals + Window ____s" used twice was a bit of a letdown. However, it was very creative and I hope to see more!
Awesome teaser big SWAFF! I totally loved it! Keep them coming!
I got all of them except for Kleenex and ruler (I kept thinking Tigger's best friend was Pooh, which didn't work out). Great teaser!
