| Profile: | Since I can't seem to stop entering bills, Oct 23,'03 - gained my Pirate Name: Bloody John Rackham I think I'll hang onto it for a while :) If you'd like a Pirate Name, too, go to What's My Pirate Name An amusing diversion :) I changed my User Name to §h@††€®€d in F£ on June 27,'03. Partly because I felt I needed a Change and partly to commemorate my broken knee... it got shattered on Dec 22,'02 when I was robbed on a pizza delivery :( But it is healing well and I should be back to normal in the near future - or as normal as I ever am :) For those interested in attending Gatherings in the Southeast and utilizing the Mystery Guest account for posting, please visit  The Mystery Guest Profile for details... but use my anon email as a contact point :)
Hi, Thanks for stopping by. I hope you decide to Register and join the rest of us in this endeavor :) I started Georging on June 5th, 2002 as a result of a friend of mine (Paul at Paul's Funhouse ) telling me about this site. It was easy to fall right into this "hobby" (or should I call it an "addiction" :)) It helped that my first Hit came only three days after I started... but I did EMS 175 bills in my first 3 days, so that could have something to do with it :) (plus chatting it up with everyone I've exchanged "georges" with :)) I'm looking forward to generating many more hits in the future, as I hope you will too :) To keep myself active, I have a part time job delivering pizza so it makes it very easy to distribute Georges as a regular part of my job. However, I'm also spending them on virtually every cash purchase I make and telling any curious clerks why they are marked in the hopes that they'll spread the word... Happy Georging! John T in FL PS: I'm single in case any of you ladies are interested :)

Well, how about a little bit of creative improvisation :)
Here's another Bingo to shoot for! I call it the F R I E N D S * O F * W H E R E S G E O R G E Bingo!
Granted, you have to get a little creative since there's no letter "O" at the end of any serial number but this works, doesn't it? :)
My Own Special Creation - The State Bingo Tables:
Minor Bingos can be any Filled Row or Column or Diagonal. Notice the background colors for each Horizontal or Vertical Bingo. Horizontal Bingos get the State
highlighted with Red, White or Blue. The Vertical Bingos get the Numbers highlighted. Diagonal Bingos get the Corners highlighted in Gold.
There are Twelve Minor Bingos possible Per Table (Five rows, Five Columns, Two Diagonals :)).
This gives you something easier to attain before jumping to the 50 State Bingo.
I currently have 24 Minor Bingos!
Major Bingos are either 25 State Table Filled!
The last step before attaining the coveted 50 State Bingo!
I currently have 2 Major Bingos!
Then the 50 State Bingo, of course. Achieved on Dec 2, '03
Super 50 State Bingo is a hit in each State Capital
I currently have 48 State Capitals!
Other Bingos include "County" bingos. I currently have County Bingo in 8 states: FL, CT, NJ, HI, DE, MA, NH, ME

From the "Your Bills" Page:
December 22, '02 - Had my kneecap broken by some jerks who decided to rob me. I spent from Dec 22nd thru Mar 7th '03 in the hospital recovering and going through rehab therapy - only entered ten (handwritten) georges during that time period. On a Positive Note, I received quite a few gifts from Where's George members (and other online friends :)) while in the hospital... Many WG members sent cash but those "georges" weren't entered at the sender's request since they felt it wasn't "natural circulation", however they did get circulated locally by me :)
March 15, '03 - attended the third FL Where's George Gathering. Held at Tampa International Plaza. A great time was had by all! I hope you can attend the next one (June in the Orlando area).
April 1,'03 - Hank plays some April Fool's jokes on the membership... good sense of humor :)
April 1, '03 - changed my stamping technique. Now using the old "Where am I NOW? Where have I been? Track at www.wheresgeorge.com" stamps on the Front in addition to the large Three Line Stamp on front and back. Should increase my hit rate which has dipped slightly while using only the Three Line Stamps.
April 4,'03 - updated State Bingo Tables. Had two more vertical and two more horizontal Bingos! (happened while in rehab therapy, first chance to update 'em) Hits in Hawaii and Nebraska yielded the new bingos! Now need Five more states for the coveted 50 State Bingo! (had a Purple hit with an Alaska designation but it didn't count as an Alaska hit since it was a Purple :))
April 4,'03 - My First SIX Hitter!
April 16, '03 - Updated my Profile with new stats and info on the June 22nd FL WG Gathering. Still need to update the Gathering Hits stats but I'm getting there :)
April 26, '03 - Passed the 20,000 Bills Entered Mark!
June 5, '03 - First Georgeaversary!
My Stats:
Since I'm approaching the maximum allowable Profile size, I'll only be noting major milestones from now on.
June 10, '03 - Passed the 25,000 Bills Entered Mark!

Apr 1,'05 - Hank plays some April Fools pranks on a day I get a Major Milestone!
For those who don't read Roman Numerals, the Milestone is:
Bills with hits: °X°XI (20,001)
First FL Georger to hit that milestone! :)
May-10-05 07:39 PM With this hit I achieved the coveted FL County Bingo! I'm the First to reach this milestone!
May 11, 2005 - Made it to the Top Ten Users List (several unRefreshed georgers helped get me there :))
