If I ever write a book or a screenplay, my first subject will be my life as a milkman.  The milkman profession is a cross between wholesome, throwback, service work and the Mafia.  In one respect the modern day milkman is carrying on what is generally thought to be a long lost piece of American history.   On the other end of the spectrum are turf battles and food stamp fraud.  I remember my dad telling me about having a shotgun pointed at him by a drunk who mistook him for his neighbor.  They had apparently started a fight the night before and this guy had decided to finish it.  It almost cost my old man his life.  I never really call him my "old man".  I just thought is would sound cool.  At any rate, I might give this Milkman story some more thought.
