How’s the Hoover Dam bypass bridge coming along? Is it still on schedule to open before the end of the year?

I'm notoriously tough to buy for, but I love coming to Vegas. Do any of the casinos sell gift cards or gift certificates that people could buy for gifts?

Are there any adult-only properties in Las Vegas? With the kids vacationing at the grandparents for a week, the wife and I thought it would be a perfect time to visit Las Vegas. We realize it is summertime, but we were surprised by the number of kids (under 12) running through the casinos, even after midnight. We observed this both on the Strip and downtown.

Can you give us some information on the Zip-Line attraction that is in Boulder City? Where is it located, hours, and cost? Thank you!!

We are going to be in Las Vegas in July with our young children (ages 2 and 5). Are there any nice splash pads (sometimes called spraygrounds or splash parks) where we can bring our kids in case we want a change of scene from our hotel pool? Any other interesting ideas to beat the heat with the kids?

Are "resort fees" taxable income for hotels? I've seen people on the LVA message board claiming that hotels prefer to add resort fees instead of raising rates because the resort fees aren't subject to sales tax. If that's the case, what's to stop hotels from charging a $1 room rate with a $68 "resort fee"? To me, it's income that the hotel is bringing in and should be taxable. Who is right? (... and, either way, I'm anti-resort fee. I'd rather see hotels advertise their actual rates, not fake lower rates that come with mandatory fees.)

I noticed that non-locals are prone to refer to your fair city as "Vegas." Isn't that usage frowned upon by locals? Perhaps you can share the background of the name Las Vegas and identify its other common references, such as "Sin City."
