Where's George? .com

OK, this has nothing to do with cruising but is a fun thing and quite interesting.

Did you ever wonder where the paper money you have in your wallet has been or where it goes to? There is a website http://www.wheresgeorge.com/ where you can register and track paper money and it has been going on for quite some time. In fact, over $700 million in bills (of all denominations) have been registered.

If you find a bill that has the website written on it, go to the site and record it. You will then see where it has been. I got one yesterday and had forgotten all about this until then. The last time it was recorded was in January of this year in Vermont. I'm in FL so it has had an interesting trip for the last six months.

If you register on the site (it's free) and you can be notified when a bill shows up somewhere. You can also register bills into the list. So if you ever see a bill with http://www.wheresgeorge.com/ written on it, do record it's travels. Who knows it might be one of mine as I just sent several on their journey today.
