Is there a map of the new CenterCity, detailing the different buildings and casinos that would be of benefit to new visitors to the Aria? Also can you list any events that go on within City Center? Any free attractions like the Fremont, Mirage, Treasure Island, and Bellagio have?

Has anyone legally or otherwise ever BASE jumped from the Stratosphere?

What do you think the chances of casinos being approved in Texas at the next legislative meeting? Hundreds of millions of gambling dollars are currently going to Louisiana, Oklahoma and New Mexico which cold be kept in Texas.

We hear that whales can sometimes make or break a week, month, or even a quarter when it comes to a casino's gambling revenue. Is it possible, or has it ever happened, that a casino underperformed in a quarter due to one or two huge losses to a few whales, and in turn, its stocks dropped? Would the company inform the stock holders that it wasn't due to lower visitation or gambling volume, but simply due to some good luck by a few people?

Texas does not have a casino. I live in Texas. They had one in Livingston (tribal) but they outlawed it. I heard there was one in west Texas but how can that be it the one in East Texas was outlawed?

Your QOD on casinos per state did not include Alabama. I know of at least five Alabama "casinos," including one you that Stiffs & Georges mentioned as having the sixth largest number of machines in the U.S. These are officially "Bingo" machines but there are video poker and Double Diamonds and other familiar varieties. No table games, of course. Did you exclude these because they are officially Bingo parlors, or because Alabama is currently going through a controversy about their "casinos"?

I saw a blurb online about the Las Vegas "Walk of Stars", and never knew it existed. What can you tell us about it?

I remember reading an article in Rolling Stone magazine that the owner of CBGB's planed on moving the 'joint' to Vegas after its closing in New York. This included everything in the place...even the toilets. Any updates on the relocation?

Jim Murren appears to be saying that CityCenter is his idea and he's the driving force behind the design. Is that strictly true? Before his departure, what part did Terry Lanni play in the project?

In a recent QoD (12/20) you list the number of casinos in each state; my question is what qualifies a business as being a casino? I live in Maine and only know of one "casino," Hollywood Slots, yet you list there being 3 here. What am I missing?
