A word that would be better suited to being on the 'oldtimey-dictionary.com' website. If you are told that you have moxy it means one of three things:
1.) What the Hollywood world today calls 'it.'
2.) You have an great amount of courage or bravery to do what you want do to.
3.) You have Herpes (which was originally called Moxygoshthisitchesherpes but was shortened to just Herpes in the mid-60's)

1.) You, my good boy, have moxy and with your dancing monkies you will soon be the toast of Vaudville!!
2.) Barnabus must have a great deal of moxy to just whip it out in front of his girlfriends parents like that.
3.) Sheryl is disgusting...I think she gave me moxy.

Slang term occasionally used for the drug 5-MeO-MiPT ( 5-methoxy-N,N-methylisopropyltryptamine ).
The name Moxy was chosen since 5-MeO-MiPT is a closely replated analog of 5-MeO-DiPT (aka Foxy or Foxy Methoxy).

Most people in the position to state a valid opinion agree that Foxy is pretty lame compared to Moxy!

MOCKS-ee, n.
Having moxie means having enough cleverness, skill, creativity, fortitude and cajones to solve (or, at least, to get out of) a difficult and personally threatening situation.
Originally a Yiddish word, popularized by Moxie soda and the Kingdom of Loathing. The caffienated soda tried to add 'vigor and energy' to the idea of moxie; and KoL invented the adjective (moxious), and made 'moxie' also imply stylishness, accordion skills, and the ability to mix really good drinks.
(Having moxie doesn't always imply that you're the tricksy chutzpah who caused this situation in the first place, but the terms aren't mutually exclusive either.)

The most brutal soda known to man kind, it has a taste resembling sweetened cough medicine. It is not for the weak, thats probably why only New Englanders get it.
After a tough night of messing up slow pokes in the pit, why not crack open a cool refreshing moxie.

The single best soda on the planet. Found only in the northeast. Easily noticed with its bright orange label or can. Tastes like liquid pain.
He Todd, lets go down to Dicks Mini Mart and get us a couple of cold cans of Moxie before we head to Fair Haven.
