| That was hard, but simple when I read the answer. Excellent work Jazz! You've moved away from riddles into rebuses. I like it. It looks like you put lots of thought into that one. Keep them coming!  |

| That was a pretty good rebus. You got my brain working overtime on that one. |

| Thanks for those comments...I tried to put my thinking cap on and move away from many of the stock-standard rebuses that appear here. Maybe, it's a bit 'left-field'...oh well.  |

| Man, this must have been horrible for people who don't know their greek mythology. Lucky for me, Though!  |

| Probably shouldn't have mixed Greek and Roman names... Persephone was Greek, the rest were the Roman names. I got the hell part, I was just confused as hell (so to speak) about the rest. I thought the "or" represented another way to look at it.
Fun though. Lol .. i thought it might've been "shopping is hell." |

| That's very clever! But isn't the phrase "Come hell or high water"?
At any rate, it's one of my favourites now  |

| Thanks for that Storm...I've heard the expression used both ways. I suppose it depends on what part of the worl you're from. |

| Very difficult; but, I really enjoyed this. Kudos. Ihave read many many of yours and you have not disappointed. On a public personal note, in one of your teasers you classified which family the piano was in, thanks for that. I always wondered. |

| It's a cool idea, but I've never heard that expression, and I don't get the drought bit. Doesn't the antarctic part explain the high water by itself? |

| Antarctic bit threw me. Surely if the sea rises, it rises everywhere. It can't just rise in Antarctica?  |

| Well constructed and fun; thanks. For those a little new to this genre, (like me!) a clue giving the number of words in the phrase would help. |

| MalcolmReynolds is right. Pluto is Hades's Roman name. |
