Yeah, and people with stAAtus can trAAnsfer them in blocks of 5K. I just did some B&N shopping in the AA mall. I'm trying to make 25K miles without flying them so I can get 50K HH.

My girlfriend rescued a dog from a shelter a couple of years ago .

here is another shot

I know I'm a few hours late, but nice hat.^

My dog got the works done last night at the vet's. Cha-ching. Hopefully, she's done for the year. Unless she starts taking Pound Puppy from Hell's prescriptions.:p

There was a Bose deal a while back where you watched a 1 minute video and got 100 points. The points are of negligible value, but it keeps the account alive. I'll see if I can dig it up and if it is still valid.

Never mind; it expired.

When will I get off the darn waitlist. Seriously this is annoying me.

Personal OT account.

Once I procure some more dollar coins (and my last Citibank 10,000 AA mile bonus), I'm going to transfer what will then be 65,000 miles to 130,000 HHonors.

Mission accomplished re: buying The Extra Mile this year. The single BWI-SEA flight got me back over 50K RDM's again, and I've already started to lobby the other half to be completely nuts and go to HNL for 2 days so I have a fighting chance at Silver. Telling her that it's customary for guys to sometimes give the F seat to the wife may be the clincher.

Whoa, whoa, whoa... don't give away the farm just yet. Most somewhat reasonable women will go to HNL without promises of F. :rolleyes: love Hawaii.

I've been on a HKG kick and would really like to go there in Nov. for my birthday, if I was able to get a great deal on it. If that came to pass, I figure the wife and I could pass silver with that and our soon to be annual FLL trip in July.

She asked if we were elite and I had to tell her no. :o We probably would be silver if it was a rolling 12 month instead of calender year, but oh well.

Just don't tell her that Silvers rarely get upgraded... ;)

I got that too. You just have to keep trying. The :rolleyes: will eventually go away.

I wonder if I will see similar T&C's if I book and then cancel Pandy for a party of 2 at Bouchon this evening

The HNL trip will definitely be in Y - it's the going for 2 days part. If we pick HNL as the destination for this bridal show thing we won (assuming it isn't one of those scam jobs where you can't book your own air), the miles will then put me close enough to Silver to justify a same day turn someplace. Assuming we do HNL, and further assuming that we do it from PHL, that will leave me 3,781 short.
