  • – [ ] 155 years ago today, three brave Americans defeated El Guapo at the battle of Santo Poco to give Mexico’s independence. – from Jose10k

    A plethora of runners joined up to celebrate the Three Amigos. Three cowboy movie stars from the silent era — Dusty Bottoms, Lucky Day and Ned Nederlander — are fired when one of their movies bombs. In what seems to be a career-saving offer, a young Mexican woman Carmen offers them a high-paying gig in her village. The three jump at the opportunity, expecting to do their typical act, but Carmen believes they are really heroes and asks them to rid her village of bad guy El Guapo.
