Default Re: What in Tarnation?

It was meant to describe my project as some kind of hillbilly nonsense. Like
" What in tarnation is this hick up to this time?"While not a listener to national public radio (my wife is a fan) they have a yearly contest whereas one takes a word, changes one letter and gives it a new definition. The results are often quite humorous. One of my favorites over the years has been 'reintarnation'.... coming back to life as a hillbilly. Speaking of such things I made my dowel for driveshaft alignment but grandparent duty got in the way of the welding aspect this afternoon. The welding may happen tomorrow morning at 3 am depending on the whims of my bladder and the magnetic pull of all that steel and iron in the shop.
