That's VERY funny! 

But seriously, don't all you wondeful people ever see these PR photos in
the papers of some charity being presented with a poster-sized check?

There's also a check-printing company somewhere in California which makes
mock-ups of something that looks vaguely like a $1 bill, but they put your
picture in the center, and overprint a check form (complete with your name
and address in the upper left).

The problem with making a cow-check is that you lose the use of all that
manure while the bank is processing it, and they may charge you for feed...
