I have a vague recollection that Debbie Reynolds once had a casino and hotel in Las Vegas. How’s my memory? Is it so that there was a Debbie Reynolds Casino & Hotel?

In the 2/21/09 QoD, you said Handsome Ed Clark wasn’t the father of Clark County. So who was this "Clark" who the county was named for?

I was wondering if you could discuss the history of Piero’s Italian Cuisine on Paradise and Convention Center Drive. I’ve been told it used to have a different name and was popular mob hangout.

Is Clark County named after Ed Clark and is Cashman Field named after James Cashman?

What information, if any, can you give of former Frontier and new TI owner, Kansas businessman Phil Ruffin? Does he have a long background in casinos or is he some Johnny-come-lately?

Just returned from a successful (won a little and used LVA coupons) trip to Vegas and was driving on Paradise between Flamingo and Tropicana and saw the Thomas and Mack center. Who are (were) Thomas and Mack? Hope I got the two names right.

I asked Bob Dancer once if there was ANY "advantage" to playing the multi-line video poker machines and he said "No. The odds remain the same no matter how many games you play at one time." Knowing Bob Dancer's knowledge of the game, I am certain that his answer was spot-on correct, but it still makes no sense to me. Doesn't the chance of getting a dealt royal flush change the overall odds?

Back in October 2008 on LVA’s blackjack-tournament message boards, Anthony Curtis made mention of an upcoming QoD about early tournament teams to clear up the long-standing confusion as to whether A.C. and WSOP Champion Russ Hamilton had been on the same team. Whatever became of that? It's been three months. Are there really that many Qs in the queue that it hasn't come up yet?

I have heard MGM has sold Treasure Island? Is that true?

"You've piqued our interest. Please give us a biography of Mojo, the company-mascot iguana. Any pictures available? And when is Little Mojo due? Or, as another reader put it: "If you've had one and only one iguana in the office for eight years, how in the hell did it get pregnant? Do the children resemble some other breed of animal? Is there ANYTHING that doesn't happen in Vegas?" Or: "So, who knocked up the iguana?"
