You're About to Exceed The Limitations of My Medication

This is a cartoon of Foghorn Leghorn and Sylvester the Cat.  They are outside.  Sylvester is holding an ax handle and Foghorn is hold the head that appears to have come off.  This is a still from the cartoon Warner Brothers Crowing Pains.

Sylvester has a dejected look on his face.  Foghorn has his arm around Sylvester's shoulder and is talking to him.  The caption has him saying to Sylvester, "Boy, I say boy..You're about to exceed the limitations of my medication."

Crowing Pains opens with Sylvester hiding in a bush and walking over, while still in the bush camouflage, and trying to take Barnyard Dog's bone from his dish while Barnyard Dog is tied to and is in his doghouse.  Barnyard Dog catches him and chases him across the barnyard.  Not sure why the dog is tethered, since the rope he is tethered to is over 100 years long.

As he chases Sylvester he ends up over the branch of a tree and hangs himself.  While Barnyard Dog hangs there all green faced next to a wood pile, Sylvester finds an ax leaning up against the tree next to the wood pile and is about to whack Barnyard Dog with it.

As Sylvester lunges back ready to swing, Foghorn Leghorn pops up out of the wood pile behind him and gently slides the ax head off of the handle.  When Sylvester swings he hits the tree and the handle vibrates all the way up his body.  The vibration from the ax handle also shake the tree and branch and break the branch, setting Barnyard Dog fee.  Free, but a little dizzy.

Foghorn doesn't say the line attributed by this picture.  What he actually says is, "Let's bury the hatch...I say...Let's bury the hatchet, but not in anyone's head boy.  Hatchet.  Head.  That's a joke, boy."

Foghorn goes on for a bit and finally Sylvester whacks him over the head with the ax handle to shut down his yammering.

Foghorn Leghorn always has a bit of a stammering problem.  Not sure if it is to show what a leghorn chicken might talk like or if that is how some men with a think southern style speak.

Sylvester also has a speech impediment.  He had a lisp and slobbers a lot.

Foghorn Leghorn and Sylvester the Cat are Warner Brothers cartoon character.  He appears in cartoons with the Looney Tunes brand.  Foghorn began to appear in cartoons in 1946 and Sylvester in 1945.
