Okay, I know there are frequent fliers in here. I am 35 miles away from a free Delta ticket. What can I do (preferably not costing money) to earn myself some SkyMiles?
I already participate in eMiles.com and eRewards.com.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Dana, how many miles do you need to get a free ticket? I've been doing the same thing for years, but I travel so infrequently I've yet to be able to cash them in.
ION, the weather for Madison is predicting 108 on Tuesday. WTF, Wisconsin?

Thrive to spite them
I've had bad experiences with Sears before.
Le Nubian - we were in the store for about 10 -15 minutes. The salesmen were busy, but Will went and found a tape measure to check the dimensions of an out of the box a/c.
The a/c units were right beside the register where the salesmen were so they could see us and see we'd been there looking.
The other customer walked in and was in the store for a few minutes and the salesman walked right past us to get an a/c unit (for the phone customer) where the other customer was standing.
As he walked past he didn't acknowledge us or say that he'd be with us or even say hi. He immediately started helping the other guy. Asking him questions, trying to find out what he wanted.
It was like we were invisible.

For Delta, I think you can technically get a domestic round-trip ticket for 30,000, but I never see anything for less than 40,000.

Our wings are not tired.
Dana, you could just try calling Delta and asking them for 35 miles. Worst that can happen is they say no. I did it years ago when I needed another 145 miles on United for a ticket.

Living room is almost done. They will be back at 9 tomorrow to do bedroom and hallway. It's looking sweet. It's laminate, so I can see the copy/paste of it, but they laid it out pretty random, so it looks fine. Plus, once there is furniture, it will cover all that up. Eeep! Very cool!!

Oh, sj, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Typo, do you have any first hand reports of decapitation stopping headaches?
No one has complained.
At work when someone is ill or has an injury, we have to do follow up entries in their notes to show how they are responding to treatments. "No further complaints" is completely acceptable to show they have gotten better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No one has complained.
Still, it's not how you prove a claim.
