MPR’s Tom Weber stumbled across this while working at his father’s store in Illinois over the weekend.
This dollar was slipped under Katie’s pillow by the Tooth Fairy in 2005. Then, she went and spent it. It went around and around and ended up in somebody’s wallet in 2008, a good souvenir gone bad.
It would be fascinating to track a dollar bill as it makes its way around the universe. One Web site has tried to do it.

(Answer: Other than Tom Weber? None.)
