‘Tis Teaser Time Ye Scurvy Students!
(It’s also “Talk Like A Pirate Day” in the blogosphere…..)
Arrrgh! Take a seat in the pirate ship before class begins but first – remember to COMMENT on this post so you can win a badge!!!!
Also up for grabs today are FLASHBACK badges for FIRST RIGHT GUESSER, RIGHT GUESSER NOT FIRST and WRONG GUESSERS! We hope you’re enjoying the FLASHBACK badges!!
Now, before we get started with the Teaser photo, shall we REVIEW our rules here at Ding Dong School??????
ARRRRGH!!!! Tell these scurvy students before I make ’em walk the plank!!!!!
OK – here’s the rules for today’s competition!
- To win a badge as RIGHT GUESSER, you must guess the TOWN/CITY/VILLAGE and the STATE (if in USA) or COUNTRY (if not in USA) where the photo or photos were taken.
- You can’t use any help like GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH – that’s just too easy and no challenge to it at all – we’d like it if you just studied the photos and figured it out without any help!!!!! That makes the playing field EVEN.
SO – if you are ready to give the Teaser a whirl, let’s bring in our little Teaser Cheerleader – Suzie to get you fired up for studying and guessing!!!!!!

Alright you pirates and wenches
You’d better sit down on your benches
If you’re sitting there drawing a blank
You’re liable to be walkin’ the plank!
I hope you’re not in a fog
Or you won’t get some of Terrible Teddy’s grog!
Do you think this is just a big party?
Pass over your booty me hearty!
Thank you TERRIBLE SUZIE THE PIRATE DOOZY! (or is it FLOOZY?)……………..now that we have the rules straight and we’re all ready to walk the plank, let’s show the photos for today’s TEASER shall we????? These are from a GUEST TEASER and we’ll tell you WHO tomorrow.

ARRGH! Here’s ye photos for our Teaser Captain Sam!
Two for one today! YES these are of the same place!!!
Now it’s up to all of you to do the HARD WORK – figure out where these photos were taken………………………and we’ll keep them up on the bulletin board for you here at school but right now, you’re free to take a little recess break – on your way out, stop by TERRIBLE TED THE PIRATE’S grog stand for a little pirate refreshment.
Have a pirate snack ye little pests! And be nice to each other out there or else!

Arrrrrrrrr, methinks Suzie looks better without her mustache. And I thought the fact that she never shaved her legs was weird….
What happens when you hire an abstract architect to design a penitentiary? You get the world’s first Surreal Supermax! Yes, this prison is full of bizarre optical illusions and unconventional design that will fool even the craftiest of inmates. A prisoner who tries escaping his cell in that first picture is just going to end up going around and around in circles until he ends up right back in the middle of his block again. Total number of escapes from the Surreal Supermax in its 15 years of service: ZERO! Unfortunately, 36 inmates have also been lost forever within the jail’s winding corridors, along with 14 guards and two former wardens……
