No such luck, but I am no longer surprised by the wads proferred in payment for some of the stuff I sell, particularly by some ethnic communities who have a distinct liking for cash and no paper work.

I have a good friend who is a barber. I have been telling him for years that barbers are the last Australians to know how many $50 fit in a 44 gallon drum.
