ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
CERTAIN STATEMENTS INCLUDED HEREIN OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE CONSTITUTE
"FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES
LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 (THE "REFORM ACT"). THE COMPANY DESIRES TO TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF CERTAIN "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE REFORM ACT AND IS
INCLUDING THIS SPECIAL NOTE TO ENABLE THE COMPANY TO DO SO. FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS INCLUDED OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN THIS PART INVOLVE KNOWN
AND UNKNOWN RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND OTHER FACTORS WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE
COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS, PERFORMANCE (FINANCIAL OR OPERATING) OR ACHIEVEMENTS
TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE FUTURE RESULTS, PERFORMANCE (FINANCIAL OR
OPERATING) OR ACHIEVEMENTS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY SUCH FORWARD LOOKING
STATEMENTS.
In June 1999, the Company signed a Letter of Intent with Beverly Hillbillies
Gaming Company Inc. and Beverly Hillbillies Gaming Entertainment LLC to enter
into a joint venture to finalize development of and finance its Black Hawk,
Colorado Casino and Hotel project.
The new entity will be titled, "Jethro's Beverly Hillbillies Mansion and
Casino", and will be redesigned around the characters, settings, events and
theme of the 1960's and '70's television sitcom, The Beverly Hillbillies.
Max Baer, Jr., the founder and chairman of Beverly Hillbillies Gaming
Entertainment, LLC successfully secured the exclusive master licenses from CBS
and Viacom, Inc. to exploit the Beverly Hillbillies theme in connection with
gaming and other entertainment venues. Mr. Baer, who is best known for his
portrayal of "Jethro Bodine" during the nine year run of the television
series, is also planning a facility in Reno.
Under the terms of the joint venture, named "Jethro's Black Hawk, LLC," the
parties will enter into an operating agreement with each party's participation
to be established and set forth in accordance with an equity ownership
formula. Beverly Hillbillies Gaming Entertainment, LLC will provide
management services for the facility.
Financing, financial advisory services and placement agent services will be
provided by Westwood Capital, LLC of New York City, New York who is an
investment banking firm specializing in structured debt financing and merger
and acquisition transactions for companies in the financial services and real
estate industries. Additionally, Westwood Capital provides project and
corporate financing for companies in the gaming and hospitality industries.
During September and October 1999, the Company completed final review of an
Admission and Operating Agreement securing the commitment of all parties to
bring the project to fruition. Under the aforementioned agreements' terms,
Jethro's Black Hawk, LLC would have assumed all existing secured indebtedness
of the Company, begin making the required interest payments as of September
30, 1999, and make full payment of all such indebtedness by March 31, 2000.

<PAGE>
As of March 31, 2000, the parties have not yet signed such agreements and no
debts were assumed as Beverly Hillbillies Gaming Entertainment LLC has
experienced problems in closing on its property for the Reno project.
The Company has been advised, by Beverly Hillbillies Gaming that a resolve to
their Reno property issue has been delayed until at least July at which time
the companies will meet to establish a new schedule. Additionally, they
advised that they and Westwood Capital remain committed to the project,
despite their Reno property acquisition delay. All parties acknowledge
their responsibility to be approved by the Colorado Gaming Commission
and will proceed to do so prior to project completion.
It is still anticipated that construction could begin sometime in 2000.
Although the Company is confident in the abilities of all parties to provide
financing and accomplish all the above mentioned goals, there can be no
assurance that any of these items will be provided or completed immediately or
in the future. Despite its ongoing relationship with Beverly Hillbillies
Gaming Entertainment, LLC, the Company is continued to research other means
and sources of bringing the project to fruition. To that effect, in December
1999, the Company signed a short-term thirty day exclusive agreement with a
Florida lending group to secure the necessary funds to complete the project
and submitted a proposal to Casinos Austria International to manage or joint
venture the proposed facility. As of March 31, 2000, no results were attained
from this source and all agreements were terminated.
In November 1999, the Company contracted with Heritage West of Black Hawk,
Colorado to locate a joint venture partner, lease or in the extreme, sell the
property on terms suitable to the Company. No results have been attained by
this source as of this date.
In March 2000, the Company was made aware of a listing problem with the OTC
Bulletin Board, due to the lack of an unqualified auditor's opinion letter
being a part of its June 30, 1999 10-KSB filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company's stock listing was moved to the pink sheets
effective April 4, 2000 as a market maker in the Company's stock filed for
listing accordingly. The Company must remain a pink sheet listing for at
least 30 days, at which time if the Company's filings have been brought to an
acceptable level, can apply to be re-listed on the OTC Bulletin Board.
In order to accomplish this task, the Company must pay its current auditors a
sum of approximately $55,000 for past services rendered or contract with a new
firm for which a $30,000 fee is required. The Company is currently working to
locate such funds, perform the necessary task and complete its filings for
re-listing.
In March 2000, the Company's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Larry Berman resigned his
position citing a conflict of interest with regard to extensive loans made to
the Company, as well as personal issues. See Item 6, Exhibits and Reports on
Form 8-K.
Black Hawk is a picturesque mountain town approximately 40 miles west of
Denver. In the past year, July 1998 through June 1999, Black Hawk hosted
approximately 3 million visitors and generated over 60% of the state's gaming
revenues. The Hotel Casino, on the northern most end of the Black Hawk gaming
district, will be in a most highly visible location as it is in a direct line
of site to all visitors approaching Black Hawk's Gregory Street intersection
on State Highway 119. The Black Hawk and nearby Central City casino market
includes many small, privately held gaming facilities that the Company
believes offer limited amenities and are characterized by a shortage of
convenient on-site parking. There are a few large facilities currently
operating with varying levels of services and amenities, as well as new
facilities planned. The theme, hospitality, ample parking, modern hotel
accommodations and a full line of amenities, will set it apart from, and
should give it a competitive advantage over, the other casinos in the Black
Hawk/Central City market.
The Hotel Casino complex will be designed and constructed pursuant to a
guaranteed maximum price agreement which is to be finalized prior to
construction. The design and construction team consists of Semple Brown
Roberts, P.C., a Denver based architectural firm (the "Architect") and PCL
Construction Services, Inc., a multi-million dollar North American
construction firm with U.S. headquarters located in Denver. The Architect is
the designer of Fitzgerald's Casino in Black Hawk, while the Contractor's gaming
credits include the MGM Grand Hotel Casino and Stratosphere Tower in Las
Vegas, Nevada, as well as the Chinook Winds Gaming and Convention Center in
Lincoln City, Oregon.

a rate of 24% per annum thereafter. Payments of principal and interest are
payable as follows: (a) the First Year Interest Obligation was prepaid at
closing; (b) commencing on May 19, 1997 and for each month thereafter, the

the then existing principal balance due under the Note; and (c) the entire
outstanding principal balance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest,
if not previously paid, shall be finally due and payable on May 19, 1999.
Such loan was not paid and was extended by its new assignee Norlar, Inc.,
pending completion of the newest financing effort. The holder of the Note may
accelerate the due date for the entire balance of principal, interest and
other sums due upon maturity in the event of default under the Note. The
annual rate of interest is 36% for the life of the loan. The Note is secured

Note. No further deeds of trust will be issued at this time. In addition,
for each $100,000 Norlar, Inc. has loaned to the Company, it has authorized
the issuance of 500,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock at $0.20
per share. Norlar, Inc. is a closely held corporation beneficially owned by
the Company's former Chairman and CEO, Larry Berman and his wife. The loans

sale of the property, refinance of the property or the financing of the

Company $998,000 to begin the development and design process in advance of
funding. As of March 2000, the Company owes PCL Construction approximately

In October 1998, the Company converted $250,000 of debt to the Company's
officers into Series B Preferred stock. In October 1999, half of the October
1998 issuance was converted into common stock in accordance with its terms.

finalizing the balance of all ongoing disputes with New Allied Development
Corporation and Tommy Knocker Casinos Corporation. Under the terms of the
agreement, New Allied and Tommy Knocker converted 2,250,000 shares of
Preferred A stock into 2,250,000 shares of common stock and agreed to dismiss

litigation and appeals.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company has had no revenues from operations. The Company continues to
incur losses of approximately $200,000 per month to service the assigned
Kennedy Funding Note to Norlar, Inc. and other ongoing obligations such as
rent and utilities for the Company's corporate office. The Company has had
extraordinary gain on forgiveness of debt this fiscal year in the amount of
2,356,929 due to elimination of a development contract booked as debt in 1997
& 1998 and allocation of other development expenses against the cost of
engineering and design of the facility. The ability of the Company to achieve
revenues in the future will be dependent upon realization of its plans to
develop a gaming and hotel complex on the property.
