As I Understand It™, today is MILK Day® across the pond, a national holiday celebrating the life of a humble dairyman who had a dream that all men and women, regardless of the colour of their skin or the contents of their pantry, might well enjoy the fruits of a bossy milk cow's labours or something. 'Twas his dream that all milk — whole, skimmed, non-fatted, 1%, 2% or buttered — would be created with equal degrees of protein and pasteurization, if varying measures of cream, and that on every third Monday in January, lactose tolerant citizenry of all stars and stripes would come together to enjoy milk's calcium richness for free. Alrighty, Almighty, America. Today is the day! Hoist a tumbler high and drink to your fatty heart's content!
