The Jedi arrived 2 days ago in Panama City and we have already unpacked and this is our first video.  Its a test video.  The spare bedroom had a wall painted green.  Can you believe it?

Panamá’s national team represented by CAI was practicing today before tomorrow nights’s game against Antigua. Today was light practice. They were practicing their dramatics to create a distraction.

Jedi Rich took a quick walk around our new neighborhood in Panama City. 

Las Vegas has become a black hole of negative energy.  As soon as we got to PC, we immediately felt better. 

Thank you Mike Dixon for helping the Jedi move out of Las Vegas. Thanks!

Park MGM just opened on September 30th, 2020. Upon ReOpening Park MGM has become a SMOKE FREE Casino. Several of the casinos were considering making the casinos smoke free. They did a study to see if people would come to Vegas if the Casinos were smoke free. The numbers did not pan out, so most casinos remain smoker friendly. 
​
Park MGM will be the experiment casino. Second hand smoke is so bad for the employees of the casinos and other patrons. The casinos are starting to make Smoke Free rooms for those who want to avoid the smoke. It is.a tough battle, because smoke is bad for people around. But on the other hand Vegas is one of the only places left where smokers can enjoy a cigarette and a drink and gamble at the same time.

It will be interesting to see how Park MGM does as a smoke free casino. If they do well, some other casinos might follow suit.

"Clean up the strip" is being heard as images of shootings on the Las Vegas Strip are circulating all over social media. 

Police officers & security guards were not hired for their hospitality skills. Guests should be greeted by qualified professionals with experience & training in hospitality.  A hotel the size of the Cosmopolitan and/or Bellagio cannot afford to have their guests experience a misunderstanding with police or security (Meek Mill 2019, Fetty Wap 2019). 

Last night 20 cops were seen barreling into the Motel 6 on Tropicana. Witnesses say they almost ran over a pedestrian as they sped into the parking lot. Officers were running and cocking their shotguns. The word used amongst bystanders was “trigger happy”.  

Eventually, they realized that they has apprehended the wrong man. Witnesses could not hear what was being said but escort that he was wearing a similar sweatshirt. They let him go after terrifying the entire motel. THATS NOT GOOD FOR TOURISM

Meanwhile, the real shooter is on the loose and other crimes are taking place.

After nearly 7 years of marriage, the Jedi had a wedding reception-- invite only.

The Raiders are boasting that their move to Vegas boost the Raiders value.  The team has seen its value skyrocket to $3.1 billion this year, up from $1.4 billion in 2015 when it ranked 31st out of 32 NFL teams. Before moving to Las Vegas, the team was worth $1.4 billion in 2015 but the Raiders have seen its value steadily increase year-over-year since announcing their move to Las Vegas.  That made them the poorest NFL team in the league. 

Michael Ozanian, Forbes executive editor who created the publication’s sports team valuation lists, said "The construction of the $2 billion Allegiant Stadium, the sellout of personal seat license and season tickets at the 65,000-seat venue and the naming rights deals tied to the stadium are responsible for the continued rise in valuation."

The reason Michael is optimistic about the Raiders is because the Raiders ticket sales have out placed the Los Angeles Rams who just purchased a $4 billion stadium. What Michael does not understand is the reason the Las Vegas Raiders PSL sales have outpaced about Las Vegas is ticket agencies. Scalpers who live in Vegas will make a show sell out overnight.  The scalper's hope is the same as Michael's: they hope Raiders national brand will Raiders fans to Las Vegas. But according to J.A. Tiberti who sits on the Las Vegas Stadium Board Authority, over 60% of the PSL sales came from Nevada and 40% came from California. Since Nevada does not have a strong Raider Nation fan base, I asked myself "how did Nevada purchase over 1/2 the PSL's". The answer was simple: scalpers buying pop all the tickets hoping to make a profit on the resell. 

The Jedi had a great time meeting Mike Dixon today.  Video Coming up!

The Jedi visited the Park MGM in Las Vegas early this morn for some good lighting.  Wow, its so good to see the Park MGM back and it is completely 100% smoke free.  

So what happens to your government when you starve pigeons to death and incarcerate humans for feeding birds? Let’s see:

The Jedi didn't publish this video last year because we wanted to protect the identity of the inspector. But that took a really long time and we only made it about 1/4 of the way. The Jedi decided to publish this video before leaving to Panama because 1) the inspector doesn't work there anymore, 2) Genting has stopped paying it's creditors and 3) enough time has passed. Many of our subscribers have been asking us to share the video. Here it is! We apologize for being so giddy in the video. We were so excited to be on first official tour of a major construction project. The big take away is they were planning to buy Wynn before the shutdown. Who knows what will happen post-pandemic. ​

Las Vegas is in the midst of the longest drought on record.  The last time it rain in Las Vegas was April 20, 2020 or 166 days ago. The old record was 150 days without rain set back in 1959.  Las Vegas also broke the record for the driest summer that was set back in 1944. Los Angeles and San Diego haven't reported rain since May and June.. Meanwhile, Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Phoenix and Flagstaff, Arizona, have seen less than 1 inch of rain since August 1.

Rainfall in a desert does more than just irrigate the vegetation. Rain cleans the air. 

The President was warned not.to attend a fund raiser in Nevada last month because Nevada has the highest infection rates in the United States and the United States has the highest number of infections in the world.

But instead of listening to the warnings, the 74 year old,
President disregarded warnings and chose to come to Nevada anyways. Today, the President, his wife, his campaign manager and several staff members tested positive for the virus.

The older generation was taught to be “goal oriented”. The problem with “goal oriented” people is that they tend to be belligerent to new information that goes against their intended goal. When confronted, goal oriented people do not compromise or change goals. Rather, goal oriented people persevere and much like donkey, they dig their heels deeper in the face of adversity.

This methodology goes against everything the Jedi say. The Jedi choose to go with the flow of the Force, not against the Force.

The problem with the older generations (Jedi Rich’s generation included) is they “Don’t take no for an answer”. This has been evidenced by the recent spike is sexually harassment claims. They simply do jot take “no” for an answer.

The Jedi spend mich of their days unlearning what the older generation taught us because they were wrong. So why do we keep having leaders who are old? They are less likely to understand what’s going on than people who are not so belligerent.
​

The Jedi have an issue with using the term "strong" when it comes to this event.  Boston Strong was a a response to a terroirst attack on their city.  Vegas Strong implies there was a terrorist attack on our city.  Was this an attack?  Many people believe their was a conspiracy to hide the real motivation behind the attacker. But as far as we know, there was one man who was disgruntled at MGM, specifically Jim Murren. Ironically, Jim Murren quit MGM in February 2020 and is now milking a high position government job specially assigned to him by Steve Sisolak to rebuild the Las Vegas strip. (?). 

Joy joined the U.S. Air Force when she was only 17 because she was so affected by the visuals she saw of the Twin Towers collapsing in her classroom.  Her great-grandmother was Native American.  Somehow, Jedi Joy has an intuition.  She knew to grab her gear and suit up.

This photo was taken in the from our bedroom window in 2017.  After October 1st, the Jedi moved to the Ft. Apache Caves for 3.5 months. That wasn't the plan.  The plan was to "Leave Las Vegas".  But the God, Satan, Buddha, Brahma, Shiva, Mohammed and oh yes, Jesus too said -- "We'd like you to stay in Vegas a little longer. We want to make you both Jedi".  We complied. 

Jedi Rich is no stranger to tragedy either.  Jedi Rich lived on 23rd & 3rd in Gramercy Park, Manhattan on 9/11. 

Jedi Joy & Jedi Rich lived walking distance from Mandalay Bay on October 1st, 2017.  In fact, they could see the Mandalay Bay from their bedroom window. ​

On the outskirts of the county, they took a stop off-road to check out some caves.  That lead to an oil-pan break.  Which lead to overnight stay.  Which led our car getting broke into and eventually stolen right under the LVMPD's noses. Check out the story here.

Life changes everything.  Jedi are moving to Panama City 🇵🇦 on October 15, 2020.  Follow our adventure on our new YouTube channel here. And be sure to follow Jedi Joy's Twitter for her latest thoughts here.

Jedi Rich has grew up listening to his father play piano for his mother every morning and every night. It was a way they stayed connected for more than 40 years of marriage. Music is important in relationships. ​

Are you in a relationship? Who do you have as a model in your life for a good relationship? If your parents were divorced you will also be divorced unless you make changes in your trained behavior.  You were taught the wrong things to look for in a relationship.  You were not told how to argue in a relationship. You were taught when two people cannot agree they should end the marriage ie: irreconcilable differences.
