I just tried to pay the taxi driver with 10 pesos and he handed it back. “No good,” he says. I didn’t know what he meant at first, so I handed him another 10. “No good,” he says again. WTF? A third 10 was bad too, finally I handed him a 20 and he took the bill. Once I got to Craig and Celeste’s apartment, I took a look at the bills. Fake as hell. I’d never run across fake money before, I’m definitely keeping these. They used an inkjet printer to make this bills and apparently the printer was running low on ink.

I also realized that these 10’s were part of the change I received last night from dinner. There was a fourth 10, but I paid for beer that I brought over with that money. Did I just pay with a fake? I’ll never know.
