Year Four Begins

For those who track such things, this marks the beginning of the fourth year of this blog. Thanks for all the comments and support along the way.

Year Three Begins

Today marks the beginning of year three of Junk Thief as we mark our second birthday when our first post was launched on July 4, 2006. And to think it all started with the photo below. Cake and ponies for everyone!

Year Two Officially Begins

It was a year ago today that with this post, Junk Thief, the blog, made its debut. (Junk Thief TV would arrive three and a half months later). We've no plans to launch any other subsidiaries, though an occasional podcast is not out of the question.

This has been a fun first year, a chance to share tales with old friends, make a few new ones and a few surprises along the way. This also would have been the 59th wedding anniversary, so I will celebrate that along with this birthday.

Give me a couple more years, and there might actually be something interesting here. Remember, I'm still a wee one in blog years.
UPDATE: A sweet little tribute by Gavin Elster over here with this great piece of art that, in the spirit of junk thievery, I stole and pasted. Thanks, Gavin!

Year one

Though our official launch was on Labor Day weekend of 2006, this first entry from the pre-launch phase of JunkThief appeared a year ago today. It has been a real thrill to get all the in-person feedback from locals and the posted comments from new blogger friends from the far corners of the world. I hope to have more meet ups in the year ahead and hope to slowly improve on content and appearance if life ever settles down.

Thanks to all who have taken time to write this url on the finest men's room stalls around the globe. Rumor has it that you can find it in the johns at the Ritz in Paris, the Burj al-Arab in Dubai, our own local Clift and above the famed waterfall urinal of the San Luis Obispo's Madonna Inn.
