Where's George?

I only have vague memories of our own Australian old-school paper money - like the wizened, crinkly two dollar notes that got superceded by tiny two dollar coins. On my first visit to the States, I remember feeling as though I was spending toy money - the novelty of the greenback was huge. One thing I've noticed is that the notes (aka bills), being paper, are more easy to write on than our own current Australian plastic notes. A little while ago, one of my workmates was given the task of collecting money for a group birthday present, and she noticed that one of the notes she'd been given had written along the edges, "Good luck to everyone who sees this note". Or something to that effect. More recently though, I came across this one dollar bill...


The Where's George? site is the real deal. And it looks as though there are many other bills out there whose paths you can track. Even though it's not a huge denomination, I've become strangely attached to this one dollar bill - it's currently hanging on my fridge door. I really should get it back in circulation and not obstruct its path any longer. After all, it's easy to track its progress through this big wide land.
