How it started

The 35-year-old joke behind The Cruciclock, in four frames.

12:00
Over 35 years ago

My partner’s roommate had a large 16-by-9-inch picture of Jesus praying on a rock in the Garden of Gethsemane, lit by a shaft of light.

The detail

A small clock sat in the lower-left corner of the picture.

The running joke

Heading out the door, we’d glance at it and say “Oh my God, we’re late!” or “Jesus Christ, look at the time!” and burst out laughing.

Today

That joke grew into The Cruciclock: a clock whose figure tells over 275 jokes. We call him Spartacus.

About

Innovation Creations is a new company that makes fun, humorous gadgets designed to spark conversation.

Our first product, “The Cruciclock,” traces its origins back more than Thirty-five years. At the time, my partner’s roommate had a large 16-by-9-inch picture of Jesus praying on a rock in the Garden of Gethsemane, illuminated by a shaft of light as he looked toward the heavens. A small clock appeared in the lower-left corner of the picture.

“Oh my God, we’re late!”
“Jesus Christ, look at the time!”

Whenever we were heading out, we would joke, “Oh my God, we’re late!” or “Jesus Christ, look at the time!” and burst out laughing. Over time, the idea evolved into a clock featuring a crucified figure telling jokes. For the record, we call the figure on our clock Spartacus—not Jesus. It makes a great gift!
