Yep, a good bunch of us are lactose intolerant. However (strangely), it only applies to milk, not milk products. I've eaten half a gallon of ice cream in one sitting before. No problems.

Anyway, this was today's:
AUSTRALIAN TOURISM - These questions were posted on an Aust Tourism Website. The answers are the actual responses by website officials, who obviously have a sense of humour.
Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I have never seen it rain so how do the plants grow?UK
A: We import all plants fully grown and just sit around and watch them die.
Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? USA
A: Depends on how much you've been drinking
Q: Is it safe to run around in the bushes in Aust? Sweden
A: Is it true what they say about Swedes?
Q: Which direction is north in Aust? USA
A: Face south and turn 180 degrees. Contact us when you get here and we'll send the real directions.
Q: Are there any supermarkets in Sydney and is milk available all year round? Germany
A: No, we are a peaceful civilisation of vegan gatherers. Milk is illegal.
Edit There actually are roos around the streets where I live {I will get a pic one day}
But dial up ROCKS
