In Greek mythology, Zeus placed his son born by a mortal woman, the infant Heracles, on Hera's breast as she was asleep, so that the baby would drink her divine milk and would thus become immortal.

-Huey Lewis and the News' "It's hip to be Square" is quite possibly, the worst song of all time.
I wonder how many people will actually click on that link for evidence of that. Personally, I think I'll just take your word for it.
