When Dewey Drip's grandfather, Pappy, tried to join the Army - at the age of 106! - the recruitment officer at the Draft Board office in Hog Hollow said he was too old, and not strong enough. Pappy showed he is an excellent marksman and demonstrated incredible strength. Pappy asked the officer if there was any other reason he couldn't join up. The officer said he could think of 66 reasons. Then they looked out the window where scores of Pappy's children were asking for him, saying things like they wanted a penny or they were hungry or "Mawm" wanted Pappy back home. It is not clear if ALL of these people are Pappy's children, or if some of them are progeny of other sorts, such as grandchildren. But it was clear that Pappy had a lot of mouths to feed!
