My apologies if the blogorrhea has been insubstantial of late. Not only do I have a five-day GamingFloor.com mountain of headlines to surmount but I've been deeply enmeshed in other projects, mostly for our Question of the Day feature. For the latter, I've been writing about the Frontier strike, the late Danny Gans, the underwriting of jackpots, more Danny Gans, and that pre-Brokeback Mountain couple, Vegas Vic and Wendover Will, not to mention their love child, River Rick. (Yes, there really is such a neon personage.)
In the meantime, you may have heard that J.J. Abrams' Star Trek film hit warp speed on opening weekend, raking in approximately $76 million. In honor of this accomplishment, here's vintage Trek ...
... in the style of Gerry & Sylvia Anderson. Since my 48-episode trip down the memory lane that is Space: 1999 ended last night, I'll be in withdrawal for a while yet. Damn you, Fred F. Freiberger!
River Rick? I thought his name was Laughlin Larry.
No, Dennis McBride of the Nevada State Museum confirms that it's "Rick." You can find photos of him/it on Flickr.
