FAMOUS NOVELS
(Alex: So we are going to set a record this year. You're going to wind up with $24,800, Joe, for a third-place finish--but we have a tie between Derek and Amanda, and we will have one question to break that tie.

However, the winner--the Teen champion--gets to come back to compete in our $100,000 Tournament of Champions, so there is a great deal at stake for the two of you. The tiebreaker category today is...)
