Dear PCN (of over 2600 subscribers),

As we publish this High Life:
The NCAA College World Series Final is on ESPN tonight and University of Michigan is squaring off with Vandy in the winner take all game.  GO BLUE!!!

PCN subscribers:
I certainly do not need to tell you that since we formed the PCN that we have lost a lot of good people of whom many were subscribers.  1554, is the number of those whose death notice has been archived on the PCN Flight West page.  That is a lot of very very fine people that we have lost.  Our goal is to notify our group and provide a lasting tribute in honor of their life at PCN Flight West. 

Well, with that said, some of you may wonder how our level of subscriptions has been impacted.  In a very real sense the numbers of subscribers, 2670, has remained virtually the same as it was shortly after the merge forming the PCN of my old Retired Slug Network and David Robert’s list back in 2009.

New PCN subscriber Sign Up:

As you most of you know our PCN is a private subscribed to online community.  We maintain a list of that virtually eliminates spammers or other online undesirables from joining with a simple sign up procedure, so the applicant can be screened.  I am very happy with how this has worked as we can be assured that everyone on the 2670 member list is legit.

If you know of a pilot who wishes to join our community and receive our notices they can easily and painlessly become a subscriber for FREE by simply filling out the SIGN UP form.  If a current member vouches for a friend and simply sends in their former Delta position and email, I have always considered this an appropriate vetting and added them directly to the list.

Thanks for helping the PCN remain the largest retired Delta pilot online community and for helping keep our mailing list made up of all legit subscribers.

Hello, this is the  IRS and you owe us $18,423!
Yikes, I received the dreaded audit letter this month and have til June 12th to cough up the dough.  Well, I have got some minions working on this problem and will report back as to my appeal success……… or failure. 

Follow up on My Personal Audit:
Well, I do owe but almost 90% less than the IRS wanted.  These were all equity trades within my brokerage account and the IRS completely ignored any “basis” that the position had and added the complete value of the positions rather that the gain.  Leave it to the IRS to scare the devil out of ya, and thanks to my representative for straightening it out.   I owe around $1969.00 which I will reluctantly fork over. 
Uuugghhhhhh!!!!!

Barb’s Mom (Wilma) Passed: 
My wife’s mom and my favorite mother-in-law, Wilma Britt from Turner,MI , passed very peacefully at age 93 last week.  Everybody loved Wilma!  I loved her like she was my own mother.  Wilma was a terrific person and all because of her personal choices on how she would live her life.  She chose, humility over pride, gentleness over confrontation, kindness over not caring, and service over being served.  I don’t know of a better earthly example of a person who lived out the fruits of the spirit found in Galations. 
Thank you Wilma for your investment in our family and all you left for us to emulate. Rest in Peace Mom………we all love you!!!
