I think it's even illegal. The banknotes are officially the property of the state, you could be charged with defacing government property. You see, the monetary value is yours but the piece of paper itself is not.

Probably, but for the sake of 10 bucks, that was sooooooo worth it.

Not in Canada. People have been "Spocking" the $5 bill/note for years. With the recent increase in the activity, a representative of the Bank of Canada said it "was not illegal, but it was to be discouraged".
Honest Abe makes a pretty good Spock.
Rest easy Mr Nimoy, and thank you.
Technically scrawling on an American dollar is frowned upon, if not illegal, but you'd never know it; the "Where's George" stamps are particularly fun.

The only way to discourage something is to make it illegal. That's the only thing that most people understand.
I'm so temped to do it to £5.00 note.
It's your money to waste.

People could refuse it as payment and you'd be stuck with it.
In the case of a Euro banknote there are like a dozen ways to tell if it's a fake, if your tampering disturbs one of those ways you're toast. People can sue you for giving them counterfeit money.
In the vast majority of cases, a bank would exchange the note for a clean one. The returned bank note would be sent off for destruction.
That's like a message in Mission Impossible, it destroys itself after a time...
I followed Leonard Nimoy on Twitter. Last year he tweeted that he would be anyone's honorary grandfather if they asked. I did and now I mourn my honorary grandfather.
His last tweet was:
"A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP"

I actually had made my mom buy me a copy of that when it came out. I lost it but never forgot it all these years.
Then when I found it again it was even more amazing than I'd remembered.
There was a poster earlier who said maybe he passed his katra on before he died. He did. To every one of us.
I am still amazed deep into my adulthood at the impact TOS had on my outlook. Mr. Nimoy's unparalleled, irreplaceable, iconic performance had very much to do with it.
Watching his interviews on the movie DVDs it struck me that he was one of the very few people who really understood what makes Trek work.
It will be difficult revisiting the show for a while.
RIP, Sir.
