Why Do We Say 'Holy Cow'? | HowStuffWorks

there's an old tv sitcom show
when one of the characters gets angry or upset
sometimes, instead of exploding in a fit or rage
he looks upward and says, "serenity now, serenity now"
his part in stirring up trouble, he does disavow

but i guess that's better than milking a "holy cow"
