I'm sure that "cow-eyed" is a great compliment among the Orlanthi. Decorations for favored animals are likely to be similar to those which women wear. Ditto for men and bulls. Hair the color of cow's hide comes in for compliments, etc.
Anyone have thoughts as to the proper way to sacrifice a cow? Do you burn it? ("We can burn her, bury her, or dump her." "Dump her?!" "Dump her in the Thames." "What?!" "Oh, did you like her?" "Yes!" "Well, we won't dump her then." --Monty Python, the Undertaker Sketch) I'm thinking that burning is out when you're fixing to rush the enemy battle line, so probably a quick knife to the throat?
