Charles,

Well, that's what gets me up in the morning.  I learn something new every day!

FWIW, I don't believe the Pink Floyd reference is appropriate since I don't *think* they included the "signature" word: "stinkin'". The "We don't need no.." part is there, though. ;-)

As educational as this may be, I think it's getting pretty far off-topic, so I'll stop now.

Cheers,

Brad

That line actually comes from a Cheech and Chong skit (or a movie -- can't remember which at the moment) where the guys are trying to get information by posing as cops. At least I think that's the setup. When the person they're attempting to question asks to see their badges, Cheech replies, "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!"

Having been a young adult in the 1960's and 1970's, I am, of course, a long-time Pink Floyd fan. In fact, one of my Pandora (http://www.pandora.com) stations is set up so that I hear something by PF at least once a week.

FWIW: "We don't need no stinking badges" is from the movie "Treasure of the Sierra Madre". Many places have copied it from there. It could be that both Pink Floyd and Cheech and Chong both copied it. (It was also in a "Farley" comic strip.) *Your* source may be Cheech and Chong.
