He said he just started marking his bills. My assumption is he started as a stealth Georger....

And I just had my third hitless day in the last 7.....

I haven't entered as many bills this year as I have the past few years, but this is still a rather strange slump for me I haven't encountered in a looooong time.....

I started entering bills five years ago and began marking them this past May.
I've only had eight hits on my marked bills, almost doubling my hit count.

The "payoff" on marked Georges is bad enough! Whatever motivated you to go through all that effort?

My extremely bad dry spell continues. I just had my 4th hitless day in the last 10 days yesterday, and have had just 12 hits overall in that span.

I have now gone hitless on 9/5, 9/2, 8/30, and 8/27. For the heck of it, I looked through my notebook and found my last 4 hitless days prior to that. I had to dig back three months to find 4 hitless days (7/10, 7/6, 6/14, and 6/6), and that covers a span of 243 hits over 2 and a half months, or about my average of a little over 3 hits a day.....

Where are my bills at......? :evil:

No, it was just something I would do when I would get home from work. Over five years, that's not very many a day to enter.

I wish that person had logged that bill in before they went home.

Hopefully a few more of them stayed within the state and are just hanging out for a bit.
