To the editor: Is there more room for milking the cow? What's all this left side, rightside? Do I need to know how the teats are accessed or the aisle they are in -- you know the cold aisle by the cottage cheese and yogurt. I admit I have never milked a cow. ...

To the editor:

Is there more room for milking the cow? What's all this left side, rightside? Do I need to know how the teats are accessed or the aisle they are in -- you know the cold aisle by the cottage cheese and yogurt.

I admit I have never milked a cow. I have seen plenty of them in the fields. Frankly, they don't look smart enough to care about anything but their next meal. (Or maybe my next meal.) Since different people have milked the cow from different sides, maybe we have left- and right-handed cows. Whichever side you milk a cow from, my main concern is that the milk makes it to the super market.

Well, I'm off to the store to milk that proverbial cow. I think I'll pick up a little 2 percent and a couple of ribeyes.
