I could not speak at the end of my final newscast. @WHSVchelsea had to assist with my read. But I wanted to share the script since we ran out of time for the entire thing... (it's in all caps because that's how we write in broadcasting)

The mic is always hot and the camera is always rolling. Lesson learned, LOL

Time for everyone's favorite yearly tradition. The annual posting of my "how well/poorly" I've aged photos.

Yes, I specifically wear the same outfit as the scientific control group. I'm missing the 2021 pic, and put "10" instead of "20" in the 2020 photo for some reason.

The biggest difference to my eye is my weight. I'm easily 15 pounds heavier this year than some of the other years.

In a business where reporters are routinely asked to shave 15 seconds off a story to save time, or weather asks for an extra 15 or 30, @6abc devotes 30+ seconds to each newscast for the greatest theme song of all-time.

LISTEN: "Move Closer To Your World" debuted as @6abc's news theme 50 years ago today. Still sounds great in 2022. (I have a CD with all of the cuts of this music package somewhere in my apartment. Might have to try to find it today and jam out!)

If MCTYW is played at least three times a day, that's 1,095/year. Multipled by 50 years, that's 54,740 spins. If it airs for 30 seconds (sometimes it's close to a minute) that's 1,642,500 seconds. There's 86,400 seconds/day... so @6abc has aired MCTYW the equivalent of 19 days

Some producers would argue that's 54,740 VOs that could have aired, but @6abc has been #1 in the ratings for five decades so maybe viewers would rather hear the same theme song for the 50,000th time than watch a kicker you pulled off of newsource to boost your story count
