Interesting Random Facts--Holy Cow
I just got into a discussion about the origin of the phrase "Holy Cow!"
I had always assumed this expression was in reference to The Golden Calf story (W). But I was wrong.
According to Wikipedia, the phrase originated in 1905 as a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Hindu belief in holy cows.
