Abstract
What well-known singer does the definition "to cross a river" bring to your mind? Why, Tennessee Ernie FORD, of course. similarly, "fish country" suggests Judy GARLAND (= gar + land) and the clue "the evidence: a joint!" enigmatically refers to Rosemary CLOONEY (= clue + knee, in pronunciation).
