We'll be visiting Las Vegas in late October and would like to visit a haunted house attraction. Can provide us with a rundown of our options and do you have a personal preference?

What is this I hear about a huge Ferris wheel in Las Vegas? Where will it be and who is putting it up?

I have recently heard that there is an ATM that dispenses blocks of gold in Las Vegas. How many ATMs are there and where are they located?

The other night I noticed a new sign on Main Street in front of the somewhat remodeled Plaza. The sign stated "Swingers Club" and "Dueling Pianos". Does the term "swingers" on that sign make reference to a '40s and '50s genre of music or is it advertising the sexual networking genre?

While staying at the Mandalay Bay last week, we had a room that faced McCarran International Airport. At the corner of the Strip and Hacienda Avenue we saw from our room what looked like a large yellow star or compass painted on the ground. Do you have any idea what it is and its purpose?

I just saw your Today's News item about "octogenarian comic" Marty Allen. He's really 89 years old?! Does that make him the oldest performer in Las Vegas? If not, who is?

What can you tell me about Carl "Safe Sax" Ferris, the sax player on Fremont St.? I have seen him for years and was wondering about his history, and his compensation. Do casinos chip in or does he play for tips and CD sales?

What happened to Danielle Demski? She is no longer hosting the Vegas Minute.

Today's is a two-parter on a common theme: "What happened to the Augustus Cafe at Caesars Palace? Is it closed or being refurbished?" And: "I was recently on the Excalibur's website checking on the breakfast specials that were being offered at Dick's Last Resort and noticed that the Sherwood Forest Cafe wasn't listed any longer. Did Excalibur close their coffee shop?"

What ever became of entertainer Sandy Hackett?
