One reader writes, "I heard sometime back that the Imperial Palace was going to be imploded last year to make way for a new casino. But I still get fliers and advertisements to stay there. Do you know if and when Imperial Palace is scheduled to be imploded? Also, are there any other casinos that are to be imploded in the future?" Another asks, "Is the Imperial Palace closing down? I have tried to book in September 2008, but this is not possible."

I'm going to be in Vegas for two weeks and will have to do laundry once. Do you know what kind of prices the hotels will charge me to wash? I figure they'll be expensive, so do you know of any laundromats that are within walking distance of the Strip or any place that will pick up and return my laundry at a reasonable price?
