I completely forgot about this. So basically if I get that number of segments or miles in during the first quarter the airline will assign the status for 2008 and how does that work for 2009? I have a few flights set up for this weekend to achieve the threshold I need to get to 25k. I appreciate your insight and help very much.

For example, you can get LAX-LAS-PHL-MHT-LGA-PHL-LAX (6577 miles) for about $200 throughout Jan & Feb. 4 of these and your 2P.
Or you could look into west coast segment runs on UA/US to get 30 segments quickly.
Then you'd be halfway to 1P already.
I think you've procrastinated too long to get anything reasonable for this year. You're already under the 7 day purchase deadline.
