Note 9 - Sale of Asset, page 23

1. Please tell us how you considered SFAS 144 regarding the sale
of
the Tropicana.  Clarify whether the operations related to this
property represented a component of an entity that should have
been
reported in discontinued operations.

2. We note in your June 30, 2005 10-QSB that you reported a gain
on
sale of the Tropicana asset for the three month period ending June
30, 2004 while your sale of the Tropicana resulted in a loss as
reported in your 2004 10-KSB.  Please reconcile this difference.
