I flew into Vegas on Mon., Oct. 21, and saw something that appeared to be a little creepy. There was a small black plane flying with a larger plane almost touching the wingtips (went on for many hours). Any idea what this was? Neither plane had any identifying marks or numbers. Could it have been from Area 51 for training?

I was driving east on Fremont and saw about three blocks of "heritage" motels on the north side all boarded up and fenced off. Is this part of some project to restore them or are they all just going to be torn down?

What do you think about all of the new shopping malls that have been announced and/or are under construction on the Strip? I count five new malls (at Treasure Island, the Linq, Bally’s Grand Bazaar, the new "urban park" next to New York-New York, and the remodel of the Tropicana). I come to Las Vegas to gamble, not to shop, but maybe I’m in the minority now. Has shopping replaced night/day clubbing as the latest trend for Strip casinos?

Yesterday I went to the Container Park and across the street was a fenced lot full of Airstream trailers. What's up with that?

My sister and I made our annual trip to your wonderful city in November and we took my daughter with us on this trip. It was her first visit and I had to take her to one of my favorite things to visit: I'm made fun of, but I have to take a bus ride by the Blue Angel motel on every trip to Las Vegas. I just love that angel! Is there any update on her fate?

With all the recent rain, what effect has this had on the homeless population living in the tunnels under the Strip? Are copies of the book published many years ago about the tunnels still available anywhere?

I think it would come as a shock to a huge percentage of readers that the southern boundary of the City of Las Vegas is Sahara Avenue. Has there been any thought to adjusting it to include the 80 to 90 percent of casinos NOT in Las Vegas?

I heard there are some casinos that offer free bingo. Is that true?

Do the non-gaming hotels charge a resort fee?

In light of all the construction underway at New York-New York, what will Happen to the 9/11 memorial from the front of the property?
