I've heard that the so-called "secret passageway" to the Southwest Airlines gates at McCarran is now closed. Could you please comment on this subject?

I've eaten at the Cafe Bleu restaurant and am wondering if there are any other culinary schools in Vegas that also have a restaurant? I've heard of the Culinary Institue Academy in North Las Vegas. Does it have a restaurant? If so, when is it open and can you tell me anything about the menu they offer?

In the Oct. 7th Q of Day you stated: "It won't be the first enigma hereabouts. Nevada, which has been called 'a vortex of the unexplained,' is home to a number of puzzlements that have occurred over the years." Is there a book or a Web site where I can read about other unexplained occurrences?

Since Vegas is already perpetually in "Halloween" mode, is there anything special that actually goes on for the holiday there? Or is it just another day in paradise?

Are there any scheduled implosions (of a casino) in the near future? I would love to see one.

I'll be flying to LV early November. I always print my boarding pass before leaving home. But how can I obtain a return boarding pass before arriving at the LV airport? I fly Southwest and early check-in is really necessary. I asked my hotel business center to print on last trip and they said they couldn't. I don't travel with a computer. Any suggestions?

Why do casinos move slot machines and VP machines constantly?

A few days ago I saw an episode of "To Tell The Truth" on GSN and saw Anthony Curtis. Is this the same Anthony Curtis who founded the "Las Vegas Advisor"? If so, how long ago was that taped and are there any other bits of interesting info about that episode?

I notice in this month's issue of the Advisor that after Ellis Island increased the price of the steak dinner from $4.95 to $6.95, it's no longer in the Top Ten Values. How long did the Ellis Island steak stay in the Top Ten?

I know there are many fine dining experiences available in town for dinner, but most are not open for lunch. What restaurants offer an "upscale" lunch?
