Paper money is made of rag bond, which is a combination of starch and ground up threads of cotten and linen. If you get a magnifying glass and look at a dollar bill, you can easily see the cloth fibers.

Oh, and I am pretty comfortable with Spike, which is an Irish term for a mischievous boy. Some people see that quality in me.
