Irish has weird grammatical rules. If a "gh" is followed a vowel, the G is silent (not pronounced at all, like Galla-her). However, if followed by a consonant, it's pronounced like an F (Coughlin is pronounced "Coff-lin").

I keep $2 bills in my wallet. I will pay and tip with plastic but if the service is great (it almost always is) I leave a Thomas Jefferson for the waiter.

NY definitely doesn’t have a cash only law. There is a chain of coffee shops that only accept credit. Maybe debit cards too, but no cash. Only place where someone might tell me “sir, your money is no good here.”

Oh man, I swear I was JUST thinking of Yusuf Lateef. Saw it in Columbia House records (convo above), and my kid brain could not decipher "The Diverse Yusuf Lateef". I thought it was street talk ala Sly Stone.
