Simple Simon sits on his rooftop fishing with a goose for pies. His landlord comes out and catches him, pulling him inside and beating the stuffing out of him. She kicks him out and puts the room up for rent, so Simon heads to the fair to pass the time. He eats some pie but doesn't have any money to pay the pieman. So, he runs away, and the pieman chases him, which makes for a pretty good cartoon. At times, Simon's ignorance makes you feel better about yourself. Go Simon!
