craniac Aug 20, 2007	Wow, if I read your award icons right, Tedger, you've submitted 5 teasers, but you've voted on 2,500 of them! That's dedication.
bradon182001 Aug 20, 2007	I totally disagree with Puttumup. I thnk this is one of the best teasers I've seen in a long time. Really good job, Tedger. And no, I didn't get it, but it does make perfect sense.
solotrvlr1 Aug 20, 2007	i got a completely different answer: if you add a D each middle word in both phrases you get: mary sueD jane-- bob fireD jim in the name of the law whatever, i liked yours better... have a good monday... solotrvlr1
doehead Aug 20, 2007	Interesting.Had to think hard for the answer.
raejg Aug 20, 2007	nice!
wordmama Aug 20, 2007	Could puttumup's offensive comment please be deleted?!
phyllisa Aug 20, 2007	I said Outside the Law, good one anyway.
MeGirl66 Aug 20, 2007	FUNNY!!
ADAWGM Aug 20, 2007	good but the girl names were in my opinion confusing and unnecessary
feste Aug 20, 2007	I first thought "No one above the law" That didn't work; Then,"Ladies First" that was better but not good enough
guessimtoosmart Aug 20, 2007	Good teaser! I love reading the wrong answers people come up with. Always good for a laugh. WHY would you even share, when half of them make no sense at all?
auntiesis Aug 20, 2007	Very good teaser, I didn't get it, but it was very clever. I hope to see some more. Thanks Ted!
chaskey Aug 20, 2007	Very good! I didn't get it, and I couldn't even match the clever answers in the comments, but I am still smiling.
2ndhandrose Aug 20, 2007	I LIKED IT. I thought it was "Everyone is equal under the law" but now I see they were all women's names above the word LAW. You Rule! I Lose! Has it ever been changed to NoONE is above the law? Puttumup must have been erased! I can't find that comment now. GREAT TEASER !!!
Dreamchaser Aug 20, 2007	very good Tedger
swirlingmist Aug 20, 2007	That's cute! Thanks for posting!

Ginger1200 Aug 25, 2010	I was thinking that the girls were above the law and boys wernt but u know about the same so nice one
patiencewithaP Aug 25, 2010	Fun! Thanks for posting!
jcann Aug 25, 2010	I believe that "No man is above the law" is a common phrase which uses the word "man" in a general sense--which would also include women. The purpose for the women's names above the word LAW is so that it would be read correctly. Otherwise it could be read "Bob, Fred, and Jim are not above the law." I think this is a very cleverly written rebus. (And it doesn't mean that all women are above the law--just the ones named here )
juju1946 Aug 25, 2010	I actually read it as "On opposite sides of the law". I was so sure it was right, and actually, I still think it works, but that's a good teaser for that reason. Loved it
precious1026 Aug 25, 2010	I didn't get the Rebus, but I am sure, according to comments here that its a good Teaser. I used a simple method to solve this Rebus but I didn't get "Above". I was then lost. Clever, indeed...
