Your answer about buying a condo at a condo-hotel (QoD 11/13) got me thinking. Maybe it’s time to buy a casino. Not for myself. I probably couldn’t pass the regulator’s background check (there’s an indiscretion in my past that resulted in a dishonorable discharge). But with valuations in the toilet and the big companies in 11-figure debt, what casinos do you think you could pick up for dirt cheap?

I read recently that the Plaza owed the Fremont Street Experience a large sum of money. Have they made any effort to pay this debt?

What is up with The Meridian at Hughes Center? It was a hotel resort, now it is not. It looks great in photographs but when you arrive there is some large electrical transformer or something in front of the property. The entrance off of Flamingo Road is closed, then not closed. Someone said there are a lot of pending lawsuits regarding this property. It looks nice and perfectly located to the Strip for someone looking for non-gaming accommodations.

What’s up with the Crystals mall in CityCenter. We were there a few weeks ago and the place was half-empty. Didn’t it open a year ago? Is it still a sign of the times that an upscale mall is struggling.

Thank you for answering the recent question about the Reefer Doctor. I missed the Question of the Day you cited in that answer about possessing marijuana in Nevada. Could you PLEASE run it again?

What is the No. 1 characteristic of a winning sports gambler?

Question 1: In your QoD of 9/23/10, you mentioned that you printed a sneak preview of your new Las Vegas dining guide in the Advisor. Could you find it in your hearts to offer up a tidbit for us faithful QoD readers? Question 2: I recently walked all the way through Bellagio to get to the CityCenter tram and saw the restaurant Sensi way in the back of the hotel. I’ve been going to Bellagio for over ten years and I never even knew it existed. What’s it like?

The Hoover Dam Bypass reduces the danger of a terrorist attack on the dam. But what about natural causes? How long was Hoover Dam built to last? And what might happen if, one day, it fails?

Why is the Liberace Museum closing?

The Cosmopolitan is opening up in a couple of months. What can you tell us about the new megaresort?
