This puzzle was enjoyable - thanks!
I'll go along with the above.
Ride/relieve is the only one to give me pause, but the hint helped. The rest of them were easy, but fun. Thanks.
Very nice teaser.
Good teaser. Thanks for posting.

Was able to read right down the list.
Happy 4th of July everyone!
Happy 4th of July everyone!
I got them all except a different answer for #1 Enjoyable and fun!
i could not solve it cuz English not my Main language , so it was a bit hard for me ^^
Nice and easy. Happy 4th to all who celebrate it and those who don't, have a wonderful day.
What fun! Had to go back to the first one after I got my brain twitching enough, but those 'aha!' moments are priceless-
It took a little thought, especially with Rid and Relieve - but I got it without too much difficulty. Fun Teaser! Thanks for sharing.
I usually get them all right, and that's one of the reasons I like this type of teaser. This time is no exception- i.e. I got them all and liked it!
Same as 2010.
fun, easy, well-done
For some reason, I had a hard time reaing "relive" rather than "relieve," which is what the word would be changed to, so I couldn't figure out #3 for a bit.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser. I breezed right thru this one and got them all very quickly.
even though I didn't answer all correctly, I found this teaser fun!
I felt # 5 was a stretch, the rest were quite straight forward?
Great job. I like this a lot.
