What's up with all the earthquakes out there? I live in New Hampshire, and if rockin' and rollin' in Nevada makes the news way up here, there must be something serious happening.

So, as a belated follow-up to your recent "Spotlight on..." feature on happy hours, I have to ask: 1.) What are "well drinks"? and 2.) What is a "reverse happy hour"?

In the last installment of your Las Vegas history series, you mentioned the 25 largest hotels, of which only nine were there before the Mirage. Can you list them for us, please? Thank you.

Last night I saw a report on the news that said that Las Vegas is going to start towing icebergs from the Arctic to supply enough water for all the growth. It sounds like a hoax to me. Is it true?

For state tax purposes, what does it take to become a legal resident of Nevada?

I keep reading in the blogs about the "$20 trick" in regards to getting an upgrade upon checking in at a hotel. What does this mean?

A friend of mine who plays video poker uses the phrase "they don't reach" when referring to certain groups of cards. I don't want to look dumb, so I never ask him, but what does that mean?

What's the average gambling budget of a typical visitor to Las Vegas?

My wife and I plan to retire to Las Vegas in six or seven years. We want to keep our home here in Saskatchewan, and live at least six months of the year in each home. I don't really like being a landlord, but we think it might be a good time to buy in Las Vegas while your prices are so low, and rent the house out until we move there. We can sell our home if we have to, but we'll be able to keep our home here if we can find a three-bedroom home in Las Vegas for under $250,000. Is this a realistic plan?

With the onset of TITO machines at most every casino, I often don’t have a few dollars to tip the cocktail servers. Are they allowed to accept TITO tickets?
