Ola Droidnicks!

MasterCylinder here with my new Samsung Galaxy S3, my first smart phone. And after years of looking down my nose at everyone obsessed with their smart phones, screen zombies I've called them, and not wanting to give up the convenience of my LG Chocolate, (though texting was NOT convenient, and the camera sucked) I've become one. I must've been bitten by one.

After having my MP3 player stolen out of my car, I tried to buy one but found only a few expensive options. So, I reluctantly strolled over to the phones and saw an S3 with the live wallpaper of the windmills and went gaga. Now I'm as much of an addict as everyone else.

Master Cylinder was a strange machine/robot/evil doer of some kind. Here he has Felix and Poindexter in his claws:

Esta bien!

This unsavory character was a ruthless and very entertaining bandido in the movie "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" starring Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston, the famous acting father of the director of this film, John Huston.)

Known as "Gold Hat" to the miners, at the end of the movie, he is used by fate to exact justice on the character Bogart plays, for he has just, in a near psychotic frenzy, shot his partner and left him for dead, and took all of the gold the three of them had been mining under great hardship.

As Bogie tries to take the pack mules hiding gold dust out of the mountains to town, they come across "Gold Hat" and one of his friends, who had tried to storm the miners camp but were out gunned earlier in the movie, who are lurking on the road in the desert. They claim to be authorities and need to search his mules. Bogie asks for their badges, to which Gold Hat replies:

"Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges! I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!" This is commonly misquoted, according to Wikipedia to what is popularly known: "Badges! Badges! We don't need no stinkin' badges!" He then puts a bullet in Bogie's back.

In the end, looking for guns amongst the burros packs, these mindless scoundrels end up pouring all of the gold dust out on the desert sand, shortly to wind up digging their own graves.

However, it means that no one wins the "Machete!"
