: I bought my new stamps at Staples today. (Whoopie) After reading what the stamps said, the clerk informed me that he was required by company procedure to inform me that it was illegal to stamp money. I told him it wasn't. He told me that he didn't personally care, but that it was in fact illegal. I politely explained that it was only illegal to deface currency in a way that makes it unfit to circulate, which would defeat the purpose of our hobby (obsession). He began to suond interested in the site and started askinng me more questions. "It just so happened" that I had a few marked bills in my wallet, so I asked him if he had a buck on him. I traded my Georged bill for his un-Georged bill and hopefully I will have made a new Georger in the process. Now I get to go play with my new stamps. Yay!
