Have you heard any news on Caesars bankruptcy? Have any casinos been closed or sold?

I seem to recall that Carl Icahn was given a deadline of August or September to cover up his his Strip monstrosity [Fontainebleau] to make it less dreadful. The deadline has come and gone without any sign of anything happening. What gives?

You said [in the November 25 QoD] MGM only sold one of the former Mirage resorts [Treasure Island], but what about the Golden Nugget? I'm pretty sure that was included in the MGM sale and was sold within four or five years of the original transaction.

Concerning the QoD on December 8 [about casinos aimed specifically at a Latino market]. My wife and I make the drive from Fresno to Las Vegas twice a year and we like to go through Death Valley. We often pass by a big sign for El Sueño, in Beatty, Nevada, and wonder about it. It appears to be an abandoned casino project. Was that aimed at Hispanics?

Parking Part 4: First 6-5 blackjack, then resort fees and comped-drink tracking, and now paid parking. What's next? Admission fees for the casinos?

Parking Part 3: Does The Las Vegas Advisor have plans to start charging to park when coming to your office to get the yearly coupon book? Seems like everyone else does!

OK, we just read about the merger between MGM and Mirage Resorts [in QoDs 11/25/16], but right after that, Harrah's bought Park Place Entertainment. Can we have a history update here, please?

As of 01/01/2017 marijuana will be legal. My question is will be legal to smoke weed in a hotel-casino if you request a smoking room?

How did MGM come to acquire Steve Wynn's Bellagio, Mirage, Treasure Island and Monte Carlo hotel-casinos? Did he willfully sell these to MGM? Could you please related the full story on how this came to be?
