NOTE 7:   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During May 2000, the Company finalized an agreement, subject to the
approval of the Company's stockholders, calling for the simultaneous
acquisition of Whitemark Homes, Inc. through the issuance of common shares
and the exchange of most of the Company's current assets for the preferred
shares held by the Company's current President.  This transaction, once
approved, will move the Company out of its association with the oil and
gas industry into the business of land development through new home
construction.  This transaction will be treated as a purchase for
accounting purposes.  However, due to the retention of significant control
by the current owners of Whitemark, the assets and liabilities acquired by
the Company will not be adjusted to current fair values.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA REGARDING ACQUISITION OF WHITEMARK HOMES, INC.

The following tables set forth summarized historical financial statements
as of December 31, 1999, adjustments to reflect the effects of the
proposed acquisition of Whitemark Homes and exchange of assets to Kenneth
Owens.  Pro forma adjustments include the removal of the Company's oil and
gas properties, the Altair property, and all of the Company's oil and gas
service business.  Adjustments also include estimated income tax
adjustments to reflect estimated income taxes on Whitemark Homes' earnings
and anticipated reduced benefit from tax loss carry-forwards due the
change in control.

Note 1:  Adjustments as noted above include the removal of assets and business
activities being exchanged with Kenneth Owens for his preferred stock.  These
business activities consist of the Company's oil and gas services, oil and gas
producing properties, and the Altair property which contains the sand and
gravel sales.  The following unaudited financial statements for these
activities were extracted from the financial statements of the Company as of
the dates indicated.

Note 2:   The financial statements of the Whitemark Homes Group did not
include a provision for income taxes due to the nature and makeup of the
entities that are to be combined into Whitemark Homes, Inc. prior to this
acquisition.  Adjustments include the estimation of income tax at corporate
rates on the net income reported in the underlying financial statements.

Item 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
		 Results of Operations.

During the first quarter of 2000, the Company sold all of its holdings in
Broadband Wireless Communications, Inc. (formerly known as Black Giant Oil
Company) and approximately 60% of its holdings in Clearworks.net, Inc.
The Broadband holdings were acquired during the early 1980's prior to a
period of dormancy.  A group took control of the dormant entity during
1999 and began the combination of several wireless communications entities
under the Broadband entity.  Clearworks.net's share price showed quite
favorable appreciation also.  The Company took the opportunity during the
first quarter to convert its holdings to cash as indicated in the
Statements of Operations and Cash Flows.

Other operations of the Company compare fairly similarly with the first
quarter of 1999.  Oil and gas revenues increased with price improvements
while oil field services were reduced due to the sale of the salt water
disposal operations around Zapata, Texas during the third quarter of 1999.

The most significant occurrence for the Company was finalized in May 2000
as discussed in the notes to the financial statements and below.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management has reported total assets of $6,904,799 at March 31, 2000, an
increase of $523,033 from the $6,381,766 total at December 31, 1999.  This
increase is due to the cash generated from the sales of securities
mentioned above.  The gain in cash was offset to a large extent by an
decrease in deferred income taxes being utilized to offset the capital
gains from those securities sales.  As indicated by the Statement of Cash
Flows, these securities sales generated $1,406,082 in cash while
utilization of the net operating loss carry-forward and recognition  of
tax benefits due to the settlement of TransTexas Gas Corporation's
bankruptcy and saved the Company from having to pay taxes on this gain.

Total current assets were also up when comparing March 31, 2000 to both
December 31, 1999 and March 31, 1999.  Current assets increased mostly
because of the cash flow from the securities sales.  Current liabilities
were down significantly when comparing the current balances to the
balances at both December 31, 1999 and March 31, 1999 because readily
available cash was used to pay of the $266,200 outstanding balances under
the lines of credit.

Historically, the Company's oil field services revenues have been derived
largely from only a few customers.  During the first quarter of 2000,
business with TransTexas represented 28% of operating revenues.  Superior
Crude Gathering Corp.  purchases all of the Company's reclaimed oil.  This
represented 40% of operating revenues while sand and gravel sales (all
made to Mike Arnold Trucking, Inc.)  represented 9% of operation revenues.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's financial statements present total operating revenues of
$369,548 for the first quarter of 2000, which is a decrease of $61,868
from the first quarter of 1999.  This decrease is primarily attributable
to the removal of the South Texas salt water disposal operations.  Oil and
gas revenues increased in the first quarter with improvement in prices.

Costs of revenues decreased when comparing the first quarter of 2000 to
the first quarter of 1999 primarily due to reduced lease costs and
depreciation.  These decreases, once again, were costs associated with the
South Texas operations.

Selling and Administrative Expenses consists of personnel, advertising,
professional fees, taxes, and other corporate overhead expenses.  In 1999,
these costs also include the valuation allowance of $115,257 recorded
against the Company's receivables from TransTexas.  During the first
quarter of 2000, these costs declined $62,715 from the first quarter of
1999 (after removing the valuation allowance from 1999).  This decline in
costs reflects lower overhead due to the elimination of the office in
Zapata, Texas along with other cost savings as management continued its
efforts to eliminate nonessential expenses.

As mentioned above, the Company was able to take very good advantage of
the stock market performance of two stocks holdings.  Both of these
holdings had significantly low cost bases.  However, net operating losses
offset a portion of the gain.   Another tax benefit, while not good for
the Company's cash flow, resulted from the settlement of TransTexas Gas
Corporation's bankruptcy.  Without getting highly technical, the valuation
allowance was previously not deductible for tax purposes.  However, the
settlement resulted in the Company owning stock in TransTexas that is
currently worth significantly less than the outstanding receivables that
were erased.  With the reduction in value being converted to a known
amount, the loss becomes deductible for tax purposes, at an opportune time
for the Company.

The Company showed a $1.18 per common share profit the first 2000 quarter
compared to a $0.42 per share loss for 1999.  This is the net result after
recognizing the a benefit from the reversal of deferred income taxes
during the current quarter as discussed above.  The write-down on
receivables (net of tax effects) represented $0.13 of the loss in 1999.

Cash flows from operations shows another decline during the first quarter
of 2000 from those of 1999.  However, the change in deferred taxes shown
as part of operations is actually related largely to the offset created
from the gains from the sales of the securities.  The most significant
other cash flow event was the repayment of the balances lines of credit
which have accumulated over the past two years.

ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION AGREEMENTS

In May 2000, the Company finalized an agreement to simultaneously acquire
Whitemark Homes, Inc. in a stock for stock transaction while exchanging
assets which have created auditing problems for the Company for preferred
stock held by the Company's President.  The agreement calls for the
issuance of stock to Larry White of Whitemark and the relinquishment of
stock by the Company's President, Kenneth Owens.  These stock transactions

                                    13

will cause a change in control of the Company as Kenneth Owens has agreed to
resign his position.  It is expected that Larry White will be elected
President.  The notes to the financial statements contain pro forma financial
statements regarding these simultaneous transactions.  In addition, the
Company is preparing a Form 8-K which will contain other required disclosures
and audited financial statements of the Whitemark Homes Group.
