I figured if you took the time to post your achievement, I would make the effort to find something more amusing than just plain "Hey, congrats"
If you have a preference for other creative efforts of acknowledgement, please advise

Are you trying to surpass my 758K from last year? I won't be able to beat mine from last year since I am now flying mostly BA and CX and crediting to AVIOS in order to reach Concorde Card Room (CCR).

But hey, who knows... I remember the time when I thought that I could never, ever become SE!

So I can see how the mileage creeps up. But I'm curious, nomad, 2MMKid, how many days of the year are you on the road?

It's funny you say that. My colleague and I both used to be Elite when it was just P/E/SE and both thought there was no way we'd ever make SE. I came relatively close to qualifying in 2011 (85K or 88K or something like that, vs previous years in the 35-50K range). And yet the past two years we've both been SE, by very small margins. And this year, I have 88K AQM accumulated or booked by mid-July.

The latter is sad. I'm there now with every Starwood property and Fairmont property I stay at across Canada. It's a very sad feeling when they'll even drive you to/from the airport in the hotel BMW because you've bought their kids gifts for Christmas. You'd think it's fun and all that and cool, but it's just sad, very sad.
