This reminds me of the discussion last week about incest and such, in which case I suppose you could be a 'cousin' of your uncle...

It's been years since I sang "Yankee Doodle Dandy", but the uncle/nephew connection was the only one that made sense.

A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam

Great - another use of the "reluctant contestant" hook. Too bad it didn't work out very well for him.

Just as the words "final answer" came from his lips Scott realized he'd made a mistake and exclaimed, 'Oh, no!"

So we have two llamas in a row. How long has it been since that happened?

As I mentioned in the spoiler, October 10, 2003, was the only other show that had two llamas.

I think the worst thing "hotseatitis" causes is the feeling that you need to rush.

$500: Yup, the $500 is generally a real tripper-upper. Not. If you don't know it, what is the shame in admitting you don't know it, using one of those fine lifelines (the ATA will do nicely for this one, I hope) & living to play for a few more bucks?
