How did you get here? If it's because you found one of my bills, then notice that you too can register and watch as more people find that same bill, as well as others of your own you choose to enter here.

Oh, and don't forget to spend that bill so more people can find it! Besides, it's good for the economy :-)

Me?
I started Georging on 8/8/2001 after hearing the site mentioned in a Hollywood Squares question.

I'm still just using handwriting--no stamp--so it is certainly possible to get hits that way.

I'm starting to add stuff to this profile, so if anything looks weird, it means I haven't got it right yet!
