I watched Olate Dogs work their way to the top spot on "America’s Got Talent." The father has been performing with his dogs for 40+ years. Some of his dogs are rescues and he donates some of his receipts to shelters. Back in the ’90s, I saw a dog act at Excalibur. Some of the dogs were rescues and a portion of each day’s ticket sales were donated to shelters. Could this have been Olate Dogs?

I read your QoD every day. What I would like to know is, I have a lot of match books and boxes from all the old casinos in Las Vegas and Rneo. Some of the casinos are gone. Are they worth anything? I also have some from new casinos. Should I keep or get rid of them?

Could you please list all of the available casino player clubs? I have quite a few players club cards and want to find out which ones I should still get.
