Teaser Tell All

Posted on by
Standard

Wednesday!   We got the all clear from Security so let’s DO THIS!!!

We were ever so sure that finally our Graphics Department had found a tough Teaser yesterday.    Well…………sadly no………….it was guessed and fairly quickly and it was a FREQUENT FLYER who got it.

HOWEVER – first things first – we want to let you know WHO our FIRST COMMENTERS were…………………….we threw a monkey wrench into the works yesterday morning by posting a Dr. Seuss post BEFORE Teaser post…..some of you thought the Dr. Seuss post was the Teaser post but nope – we did TWO posts yesterday.    We like to keep our students on their toesies (or paws).

“Very funny Professors………..NOT!”

We had TWO First Commenters yesterday and they were:

Drumroll please………(with our newest drummer)

Our FIRST COMMENTERS were:     INGRID and SHARON !

Congratulations Ladies………each of you gets:

I was one of TWO First Commenters on the Teaser Post of March 2, 2021!!

“Obviously I wasn’t first…..I need my beauty sleep!”

Here’s the photo we gave you yesterday to study and decide WHERE it had been taken…………………..Security?   Please bring in the photo!

Reporting for duty Professors…..Here’s the photo!

It’s a beauty isn’t it?   Where is this?   It’s Dunovica Beach on the Island of Hvar in Croatia!

Well you might have thought we’d fool everyone with this one but we didn’t…………..IN FACT………………it was someone who is frequently FIRST and RIGHT here in class who guessed it first:

INGRID!

Miss Ingrid you are YET AGAIN a double winner!!

Not only was I a FIRST COMMENTER but I was the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER TOO on the Teaser of March 2, 2021. I’m so excited, I feel faint…..haha

Did you also guess it correctly?    If you did, then you get a badge for that!

I guessed the Teaser of March 2, 2021 BUT I wasn’t FIRST! Oh well……I still got a badge!

AND if you guessed WRONG – well – you know what YOU get:

Well I guessed but I was NOT right so I wound up with a Greenie from the Teaser post of March 2, 2021!

Congratulations winners!  Our Cheer Team wants to cheer you on and let me just say they were rather pleased to have TWO First Commenters instead of SIX!

We’re Late again for our ballet class
No lunch for us – we’ve gotta pass
If we’re late again our teacher will be cranky
And we won’t get away with any hanky panky!
We congratulate the FIRST GUESSERS Ingrid and Sharon
Both are frequent early birds in case you’re caring….
Then unbelievably so Miss Ingrid was on the ball
She got TWO badges for making the call
She guessed the Teaser RIGHT and so was a DOUBLE winner
We hope her husband takes her out to dinner!
Now off we go to dance on our toesies
Hopefully we won’t trip and fall down on our nosies!

Good job ladies…………… hope you don’t fall on your noses either – be careful!

Who’s UP for Lunch????

Let’s go!

We know you didn’t want anyone to make a fuss Professor Teddy but WE know that your birthday is March 4 so we’re celebrating !   SURPRISE !

Thanks to you and your staff Miss Dingleberry!  Everyone gets cake and ice cream for dessert!

LET’s EAT LUNCH!

Have a good week – see you Tuesday!   Your Professors

Teaser Tuesday Time!

Posted on by

Happy Chilly Tuesday!  HAVE YOU COMMENTED YET?

Clowie and her team did a quick perimeter check – after all who wants to be out there for long when it’s this cold right?   Even Pyrenean mountain dogs need to be warm SOME OF THE TIME!

“All is clear team – let’s go get warm INSIDE!!!!”

So it’s time again to figure out a photo’s location and we know sometimes it’s tough and sometimes it’s easy – this time we’re not sure WHAT you will think of the photo but our Graphics Department came up with it.

“Gee….the Graphics Department comes up with some goodies – I’ll give it my best shot!”

Here are the rules for guessing the Teaser – AND the badges you might win if you’re sharp as a tack!

The front row of glasses-wearing students looks READY to rock the Teaser!

Let’s do this………………….can we have our wonderful PHOTO GUARD bring in the challenge of the day please?

PAGING PHOTO SECURITY TO CLASSROOM ONE!

 

Here’s today’s photo Professors!

Where was this photo taken?   Remember to follow the rules!!

No the answer is not “Zebra Land”……….just thought we’d tell you that right up front.

“Interesting place…….not exactly bustling with humans or critters is it?!”

You all just do your  best to figure this one out and maybe you’ll get a badge out of it.      Cheer Team?   I think you will find the students ready for a BIG CHEER to get them going on this Teaser today.

Stuck in a cold spell no Harleys to ride
Can’t even use the playground since there’s ice on the slide (brrrrr)
Guess we’ll just relax and watch you all study
Remember no cheating with your study buddy!!
Study the photo and give it your best try
Now if you’ll pardon us now it’s time for us to fly (not literally of course).

Thanks a bunch girls – sorry it’s too cold to go motorcycle riding but maybe in the next few weeks winter will slowly die out and Spring might come early????  Maybe??????    At any rate, go grab some lunch – we’ll see you there.

“YOU SAID THE MAGIC WORD!!!!   LUNCH!!!!!!”

Yes let’s head on over to the cafeteria and see what’s to eat……………….tomorrow we’ll meet back in the classroom to see who wins and who loses………………We Professors with you tons of luck though!

Happy Tuesday students…………time for lunch!!   Enjoy!!

See you in class tomorrow gang…….!    Your Professors

It’s That Time Again!    Clowie and company say GO FOR IT – so we’re going for it!  HAVE YOU COMMENTED??????

“OK Gang….duty done…all is well….let’s get inside where it’s WARM!”

Here we are again…………it’s Tuesday and time for Teaser.    GUESS WHAT………………Graphics Department is getting a break today and we have a GUEST TEASER for you to agonize over instead of something our BIONIC Graphics Department came up with!     It’s a doozie too so get ready for that in a few minutes!

Before we do that, let’s review rules and badges shall we??

As you see we have WINTER-ISH badges for you to win this week……………………………..So good luck capturing a badge for your collection if you can!

“I like those wintery badges….I don’t like winter but I like the badges!”

Security Guard Guy?   Would you please bring in today’s TEASER photo?????

WHERE WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN?????????????

This is a doozie if ever there was one…………………….so good luck figuring this one out everybody – hope you’re WIDE AWAKE and ready for this challenge.

“I’m speechless………..”

We told you it was a doozie!     Now let’s see if the Cheer Team can get you PUMPED UP shall we????

Holy Cow it’s mighty chilly
We wore our long johns instead of our undies that are frilly!
No riding our Harleys to the Pub today
Icy streets are not much fun so it’s the hot tub for us today!
Do your best to guess the Teaser now
Then we’ll call out your name tomorrow WOW WOW WOW!!!!

Your hot tub awaits ladies………………………..I saw Sarge in his earlier.    Guess it’s just one of those days isn’t it.

“WHADDAYAWANT?   I’m relaxing here!”

Girly Territory for those Cheer Team Chicks

So I think you students have your work cut out for you………….we’ll meet back here tomorrow for TELL ALL CLASS.    Make sure you’re on time – Sarge will be all PRUNEY from soaking in the water all day so he’ll probably be grumpy.    We don’t want a GRUMPY SARGE!

Now who’s up for lunch?     Let’s go – single file………no shoving, tripping or harrassing in line!

Off we march to the cafeteria!

Welcome Students!   Time to have your lunch then off to study or head home.

MENU OF THE DAY:

See you all in class tomorrow for the TELL ALL!   GOOD LUCK!

Teaser Tell All Time

Posted on by

Students!  It’s time for us to TELL ALL and Clowie says security is taken care of so let’s GO!

First of all, we sure did have a bumper crop of FIRST COMMENTERS yesterday.    One of our firsties was having trouble getting her comments to post here for some UNKNOWN reason (WordPress issues most likely) but when her first comment arrived FINALLY it was shown to have come at 7:50AM which was the same time the other THREE Firsties got here.    That means we have FOUR FIRSTIES from yesterday!     Of course it also means the Cheer Team were a bunch of frownie faces when they had to do a cheer for today but they got it done.

“Well you’ve told us the Cheer Team are grumpy a lot of the time anyway!”

Yes that’s true.   Oh well………we can’t make everyone happy right?    Let’s talk about our FIRST COMMENTERS though – wanna know who they were?????

“YES PLEASE PROFESSORS!!”

Your wish is our command…………………………………….drum roll please???

OUR FIRST COMMENTERS WERE:

Timmy, Janet, Ingrid, and Sharon

“HIP HIP HOORAY FOR THE FIRSTIES!!”

You each get one of these too!

I was one of FOUR First Commenters on the Teaser of August 18, 2020

YAY FOR ALL FOUR OF YOU!   Would you believe that one of our FIRST COMMENTERS was also the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER?    Well, here’s the photo from yesterday first of all…………..

A very pretty but somewhat weird photo……………….the photo was taken in the waters off Bimini Island in the Bahamas and that is believe it or not a CONCRETE SHIP called The Sapona!    Want more info on this weird sight????    CLICK HERE

A most curious sight………………………but beyond that is the face that the person who was our FIRST RIGHT GUESSER was one of our FIRST COMMENTERS – wanna know who??????

“Well it wasn’t ME………….so who was it????”

OUR DOUBLE FIRSTIE TODAY WAS……..

INGRID!!!!!!!   Woo Hoo!

Not only was I a FIRST COMMENTER but I was the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER TOO on the Teaser of August 18, 2020!

Congratulations!

Well it looks like SOMEONE is upset…….you’ll just have to try harder next week Lucy!

Cheer Team – I know you have a lot of work to do today but you can work in a hundred names if you need to in a cheer – you’re just GOOD at what you do!!

“Gee thanks Professors – here’s our cheer!”

Well Professors here we are
We just arrived at our favorite bar
So we thought we’d do our cheer from here
Before we grab a nice cold beer
You had a crowd of FIRST COMMENTERS there’s no doubt!
Timmy, Janet, Ingrid and Sharon can now jump and shout!
Then to top things off and make us more thirsty
Miss Ingrid guessed RIGHT so she was a double FIRSTIE!!!!!
Now if you’ll pardon us please we’ve got bar stools waiting
Nice chilly brewskis we’re anticipating!!

OK girls………..enjoy your afternoon……….well – don’t overdo but enjoy OK?     The rest of us are going to head for the cafeteria for some sustenance and relaxation before we board the School Bus for home sweet home………………we will meet again here next Tuesday for more TEASER FUN.

Hello Students!   Happy Wednesday……enjoy your lunch and/or breakfast and we’ll see you  next week!

TODAY’S MENU:

ALL ABOARD FOR HOME!

See you next week gang………..Your Professors

Tuesday Teaser Class Time!

Posted on by
Standard

Here we are again!   Tuesday!   Clowie and company say all is well around us so let us begin shall we??

“Chief Clowie can we go to the cafeteria for a cold drink and snack?   It’s HOT out here!”

Thanks Clowie I think your crew is ready for a break.  Please enjoy yourselves and keep cool!    Students – please have a seat and get ready for GUESSING.

Ready to go Professors!

Today’s Teaser Photo was suggested by a GUEST and we’ll tell you who that is when we do the TELL ALL with badge awards tomorrow.  Meanwhile, let’s show you the rules and badges shall we???

ALRIGHT!   Now you know what’s at stake and how you should search for clues and figure out the Teaser without resorting to the dreaded and forbidden “GOOGLE SEARCH” or similar effort!

Impossible!  We haven’t shown you the photo yet!  I like your enthusiasm though!

So let’s get our Photo Security Guard in here with today’s photo shall we?????

Here’s today’s photo Professors!

WHERE WAS THIS PHOTO TAKEN????

We have another photo of this place which we’ll show you tomorrow…………………all I can say is I love the gardens!!

ALRIGHT YOU TWO IN THE BACK ROW – WAKE UP!!

uhoh…………….sleepers……………………wake up guys or Sarge will get REALLY MAD!

“wait…..what?…..where am I……who am I?”  OOPS – sorry Professors – late night – er – um – STUDYING!

Yeah sure………………….let’s bring on the Cheer Team – they’ll wake everyone up!

Uhoh nappers in the back of the room
Maybe we should sing a really loud tune!
They look awake now so we’ll carry on
Besides the urge to scare them awake is sadly gone!
We hope you figure this one out and that’s no lie
The least you students can do is give it a try
It’s a pretty place though wherever it is
Now get to guessing and show us all you’re a geography whiz!

Thanks girls!   That got everyone AWAKE and ready to work on the Teaser.

GROOVY….TOTALLY…..

Shall we stroll over to the cafeteria for lunch?   I hear there’s some goodies on the line today………….although I must say I think Miss Dingleberry and staff do a super job – it’s not unusual for students to complain about the food in a school cafeteria but I think we have GOOD FOOD!

Happy Tuesday!   Please have a stroll in the cafeteria line and find your favorites and ENJOY!

What’s To Eat Today?

ALL ABOARD!   See you tomorrow for TEASER TELL ALL and GOOD LUCK!

Your Professors
