Did the recent amount of rainfall help raise the water level in lake Mead, or did it just run off and not help at all?

Quite some time ago I sent some pictures of a guy that Pam Goertler had found at a DI golf tournament schmoozing with celebrities. No one knew who he was, including you folks. Now I think someone may have solved the mystery...

Has anything new happened to the old Westward Ho lot yet? It has been empty for quite some time. We always stayed at the Ho and hate to see the empty lot.

You referred to Fluff LeCoque, long-time company manager of Jubilee! in a recent QOD. Does that name have an "inside meaning"?

What is the latest status on Wayne Newton? Is he performing anywhere? And what about his daughter? How is she doing?

It’s November. What sport should I be focusing on with my betting and handicapping?

I just read an Associated Press article that said Philadelphia (population 1.55 million) is now the largest city in the U.S. with a casino, surpassing Detroit (population 910,000). What happened to Las Vegas? I thought the population was over one million?

In Today’s News you wrote about "The Big Spin" (roulette wager) at the Golden Gate and never told us what happened. So, what happened?

Today we tackle two questions in one, since related inquiries came in coincidentally from two different readers at almost the same time. First up: "From time to time you mention Bob Stupak’s Vegas World vacation packages from the old days. I remember seeing print ads for the VW offers when I was a kid. I also remember seeing commercials featuring Telly Savalas for something called 'Players Club International.' Was this in any way Las Vegas- (or Atlantic City-) related? Was this a deal similar to the one at Vegas World?" Part II: "Was Telly Savalas a resident of Nevada? He seemed to like to gamble; he even filmed one of the ’Kojak’ episodes there."

I read recently that the Plaza owed the Fremont Street Experience a large sum of money. Have they made any effort to pay this debt?
