Where’s George?

We just got back from a trip to northern Wisconsin last weekend and as I was sorting the bills in my wallet I came across a dollar that was stamped: Track this bill at www.WheresGeorge.com It wasn’t hyperlinked but you get the idea.

Anyhow, I have a step-son named George who is very Web savvy and who has been on the road for sometime. Because we don’t know where George is right now I typed in the Web address on the extremely slight chance that “our” George put up the site. Well, he didn’t and the “George” in the URL refers to George Washington but what a cool site. I entered the serial number of my dollar bill “L83242103A” and the series “2006″ and a Bill Tracking Report appeared showing me that the bill has most recently traveled from Brooklyn, NY. What does this have to do with shoes? Not a whole lot but it just seemed like a fun site.
