I love the cartoon where Foghorn Leghorn babysits the brainiac chick to impress the mother hen. He's wooing her you see.
He tries to show the kid how to do things like bat a baseball, make a paper airplane etc... and the kid beats him at everything.
Finally, he suggests, "hide and seek" and hides in a kind of box or lean-to next to the barn, saying to himself, "he'll need a sliderule to find me in here".
The kid finishes counting to ten, pulls out a sliderule, does some calculations and grabs a shovel. He commences digging in a spot nowhere near the place Foghorn is hiding. Foghorn says to himself, "he's got it all wrong" and laughs.
A moment later the kid lunges the shovel deeper into the hole he just dug, strains for a moment, and out pops Foghorn atop the shovel.
"But, but, I'm over thar!", exclaims Foghorn. The kid shows him his sliderule and Foghorn says, "Yeah, yeah, figures don't lie".
Nevertheless, Foghorn walks over to where he had been hiding and is about to lift the lid when he pauses and says, "I better not, I just might be in there".
Funniest cartoon ever.
