Are you thinking of lalala? It's just a characterization, not a title.

I saw in someone's profile "*wood personal friend" or something like it. Is this a higher status available by invitation only for seriously profitable guests?

Are you bored that you had to dredge up comments of mine from over a year ago thinking they were from today?

Sorry William - my error.....I don't know that it is boredom so much as exhaustion from a rough work week....I'd love to get paid to surf flyertalk though.

RE: rough work week...been there, done that, have the t-shirt to prove it. 
Have a nice weekend regardless of how short it may seem.

I doubt I could do 25 more stays by the end of 2005, though.

How about lower levels of Hilton
Based on company policies last year, I divided my hotel stays between Marriott and Hilton, so I didn't make Hilton Gold again. I started my own company, so now I control where I stay.
Will SPG comp me SPG Gold status if I'm Hilton Silver?
