Easy, clever, and fun!
I enjoy these teasers - thanks
easy and fun
I enjoyed this teaser because I had to think and it gave enough information. I was happy to know I completed it.
I've only been doing this for a week, so this was a really good one for me to hone my skills. I actually completed it in less than 1/2 hour :-)
Good teaser, didn't take me long though.
Great job, I liked this one a lot keep them coming
I like it but there is a lack of information to solve it.
I loved this. It was easy, but it wasn't a dead giveaway. I had to think just a little, but not so that my brain hurt
It's not actually possible to solve this. The last clue just states that Tara was born before Brenda, not that she was born in an earlier month.
I have to agree with Phrebh. There is no way to tell the difference between Tara and Brenda's months.
its the samthing phrebh, tara was born b4 brenda is tellin u that tara was born 1st
phrebh, the first sentence of the puzzle states that the girls were born in different months, so if Tara was born earlier, it was an earlier month.
actually, the last clue says that tara was born in an earlier month, so there is plenty of information.
What threw me off was that mary wasn't born in july, but i started over, then i got it.

This teaser was corrected so maybe the original didn't have that tara was born in an earlier month but stated that she was born earlier. Doesn't make a difference to me because I hate logic teasers and they always take me forever to figure out. I got it this time that is the only reason I am posting. I actually got one right so I liked it.
Graet Teaser, with very good Clues. keep it UP
awesome job
