Ah some of my experiences with the card in the second month.
- Paid for PF Changs lunch and the female waitress wrote her number on the receipt - she wasn't overly attractive though. Ironically, we had brought coupons for lettuce wraps.
- Denied access to American Airlines lounge at LAX - you must have signed up for the priority pass (free) and bring your priority pass card.
- Must still pay taxes for your free companion tickets
- Can count on upgrades from economy to 1st class if the plane has it, you arrive early, dress nicely, travel alone and hit on the check in girl - didn't try it with a guy.
- Played with my card under the black light at Body Shop in Hollywood (bad night) and noticed that most Amex's including my accolades card show the centurion warrier and the word AMEX under the black light. The centurion card does not do this but the back of the card where the signature is does have little "AMEX" characters. Visa's have the dove/eagle or whatever it is.
- Same night at the strip club while I was doing this, a stripper saw it and would not leave me alone - had to put my wallet in my hidden pocket and left after my buddies all got lap dances and the quality of the girls dropped off - around 3 AM.
- Las Vegas: lots of doors open for you with this card - my only problem, I'm not 21. Heard stories about free tables in Tao, free cabana at Wet Republic.
- Don't ever buy fast food with the card. Bad attention.
Will keep you guys updated.

Update 8/26
I'm actually sitting in my statistics class and I'm a little bored.
I've gotten a lot of emails about who I am and what I do. I'll provide alittle information but in the interest of my safety I think its better for me to stay anonymous - also makes the blog more interesting. Anyways, I am a student at USC (2011) and major in Health Promotion & Disease Prevention Studies. I hope to become a doctor and follow in the family tradition so I do spend alot of my time in the books. USC is hard, I am no genious. I am not rich either, I am here on scholarship. The rest of this blog will be random musings:
Fact: How long a girl extends her words when she is talking is proportional to how much of her frontal lobe is missing. For example, a girl that says HEEEEYYYY is 2 steps up from a dolphin (1 step up from a dolphin is Plaxico Burress - who shoots himself in the foot?). A normal girl will simply say Hey.
Fact: With college football season coming up, I will boldly predict that USC comes out of nowhere (despite being #4, ESPN never mentions us) and plays and once again dominates the Rose Bowl.
Fact: Deangelo Williams and Adrian Peterson will be the top 2 fantasy players respectively.
Fact: Mark Sanchez will only finish behind Brady, Brees, Warner and Manning in fantasy points this year.
A couple of my purchases with the black card - gives you double warranty.
LV Evidence Sunglasses in Black - these look good
Kobe Bryant Zoom IV Shoes in Black/Red - these look good
Jay-Z Tha Blueprint III - on preorder, comes out 9/11, still the greatest rapper alive
Advice for Centurion card members:
Don't ever buy fast food or movie tickets at a theater with your black card - use your linked gold or platinum cards. It causes a huge scene and the $8.50/hr worker will proceed to run around and show it off to everyone. It creates attention but at these places it may be in the negative form. Read: You may get mugged. Practice safe carding.
I have a trip planned for the Mandarin Oriental in Washington D.C. - payed the lowest rate through expedia for standard room and expect to upgraded to Cityview Suite (3x floor space). Good times shall be had.
