what the. . . ?

i have wondered where Tarnation is.

as a child, i heard it most frequently used as part of a big exclamation. maybe that's when i figured it'd be safest to stay just south of it.

i suppose inspiration can come from most anywhere - as long as you're on the lookout for it. the inspiration for a dinosaur like me to drag my mesozoic bones onto internet came from 2 former students - jonathan tribble and matt mantooth. i'll post links to their sites when i figure out how to do that.

back to work now.
