Hot Wax Weekend!
When I was young, the local radio stations had a Hot Wax Weekend from time to time; they would roll back the clock and play hits of the 60s instead of hits of the 80s.
For me, on a Hot Wax Weekend, I also turn back the clock.
The blogging clock.
To my original blog design, eight years old now. No gravatars. No bells-and-whistles. Just chunky web design.
Rather than repeat myself, the last time I did this, two years ago now, I shared some of history of the website.
It’s Memorial Day Weekend, the start of unofficial summer, or something like that. It’s also a Hot Wax Weekend here at allyngibson.net, so fire up some Creedence Clearwater Revival or some Doors, wear a tie-dyed shirt, and turn back the clock.

Man, this looks awesome! 🙂
The original GreyMatter design, by the way, didn’t have smileys.
