I started this blog five years ago today with a basic idea: keep it original and keep it relevant. Unfortunately, I left out “keep it updated.” As you can probably tell, Waxy is taking the back seat these days to other priorities, namely work and family. (I don’t even have the time to weed out comment spam.) I terribly miss the quirky form of investigative reporting I used to do and I certainly miss spending more time exploring the backroads of the web. I promise I’ll be back. In the meantime, the infrequent updates continue. Happy birthday, little blog!
