Are any of the book titles you carry available in audio-book format? I have a long commute every day and listen to a lot of audio books, but rarely have a chance to sit down and read.

We really enjoyed the backstage tour of Bally’s Jubilee show using the LVA coupon last year. Do any other shows offer special backstage tours? We are spending 10 days in LV in August and have seen all the shows already. We would like to try more backstage-type activities.

I’m a little confused about the $100 Terrible’s rebate on losses. How do you determine if and when you reach the loss level? Is it total coin-in regardless of coin-out? Is it total coin-in less any winnings? For example, let’s say you put in a hundred-dollar bill and win $500. Do you take out the $500, put $400 in your pocket, put the original $100 back in, lose it, and consider that the loss of the $100 and get the $100 in free-play from the casino? Or does it work differently? Who determines if, when, and how you’ve lost your original $100?

What is up with The Meridian at Hughes Center? It was a hotel resort, now it is not. It looks great in photographs but when you arrive there is some large electrical transformer or something in front of the property. The entrance off of Flamingo Road is closed, then not closed. Someone said there are a lot of pending lawsuits regarding this property. It looks nice and perfectly located to the Strip for someone looking for non-gaming accommodations.

I read a book entitled "War of the Godfathers" and the book states that a casino was to built by operatives of the Chicago Mob. It also suggests that former Desert Inn owner, Moe Dalitz was murdered. I have followed the history of Las Vegas and the Mob for years and I don’t know anything about "The Star" and i believe that Moe Dalitz died of natural causes. Can you verify?
