Correct <ok> All yours!

Hmmm. Trying to piece together some songs from Donna Summer and The Fall, but getting nowhere :chin:

Nope! Is that based on anything more than the word 'now' at the end of his name?

It’s based on a play on words. A ‘summer’ (someone who does sums) is someone that knows how to add ‘em (Adam).

It was him, or Duffy, and I arbitrarily chose Stefanow.

Sorry, neither of those either, but it looks like you're getting warmer. :-)

Cleverer than the actual answer, but no. You're getting colder.

Yes! :win: :win:

July, August, September, October and November are the only months that are wholly contained within summer and autumn in the northern hemisphere.

It’s not Willie. But you’ve identified the correct coyote. And it should be pretty easy :-)
