because they give milk and I love ice-cold milk! It's my favorite drink. It is great with dinner or lunch or breakfast. It is yummy with anything sweet. It is satisfying all by itself. So, this is my homage to the bovine beverage.
I can empathize with the characters in the "Got Milk?" ads who can't get to or don't have any milk to drink with their chocolate chip cookies or who spend an inordinate amount of time putting straws together to try to reach the elusive glass of milk only to find themselves at the other end of a PMS-laden female's sensitivity breakdown. I am grateful that these ads do not depict real life. Hey, maybe that's a good premise for a new reality show. Each week we could watch a batch of contestants that have no lives and perfectly coiffed hair battle their way through obstacles to get to that glass of milk. Even before the writers' strike, we were being subjected to a lot of lame plots and gimmicks instead of being able to watch something well-crafted and interesting. Hey! I'd be cheering for the contestants as I live vicariously through their efforts to win those glasses of milk. And, the producers could offer the winners an extra incentive of cookies, a blankie and nap-time just to keep it interesting and at the level where most TV fare resides...

Same reason I'm thankful for leprechauns. ;P
Because they leave pots of gold? Because they're mischievous? Or because they invented Lucky Charms?
I love milk, too, but I love cheese more.
Cheese is a milk product, so without the happy cows giving milk, there'd be no cheese to love. I will not tell the cows that you favor cheese over milk, Bryn. They'd just get upset and then they wouldn't be able to give milk and then I would fall all apart and then I'd have to blame someone for my desperate psycho behavior, and then "they" would put me in a funny looking jacket and take me to The Home (where I hope they serve lots of cold, fresh milk...and some occasional cheese).
