Rufus is the stuffed cow with long extendable arms that I bought from the Nebraska bookstore and crucified last week. He has flogging marks and a pierced side. I would give him a crown of thorns but I can't think of anything that would be cow-appropriate off of the top of my head.
Sixteen dollars for the cow, nine dollars for a small "ms fix-it" style hammer. The long vertical beam was purchused from Home Depot for two dollars, the cross beam was discovered on a scavavinging trip through the Antelope Valley construction site. Titulus made from the torn fold of a Mountain Dew case. Red correcting pen to simulate flogging marks.
Construction took approximately forty-five minutes. My trip to North Platte turned out to be something of a Godsend (zing) as it gave me access to my father's workshop. Heavy duty 6-inch nails, power saw, oh yeah. Three nails securing the cross beam to the vertical bar, one for each hoof, legs conveinently folded in a way that allowed me to secure them to the cross with a single nail, really selling the crucifixion look.
Photos may or may not be coming. I'm more of our lord than I probably should be, I have yet to show it to all of my friends but this will change by and by.
My parents are politically silent on the matter.
