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

I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy
A Yankee Doodle, do or die
A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam
Born on the Fourth of July

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

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?
