Happy birthday to Dini Petty, born on this day in 1945!
She was the first female traffic reporter to pilot her own helicopter, clocking 5,000 hours as a pilot for CKEY. She then became a news anchor, reporter and talk show host on both radio and television.

Well here we go. The last day is upon me.
My goals today:
-Send my goodbye emails
-Probably duck out early
I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up swamped and I just had to quietly excuse myself at the end of the day.
That kinda thing happens pretty regularly around here...

This really cool thing happens as you age...
The children all start coming to the bars you go to. Then they talk about "older" people who are like 30.

Quick question for anyone still on Twitter: Why? And does that reason really mitigate being part of a nazi and deep fake platform?

People have been asking me what's next.
Honest answer is that I dont know. I've considered freelance work, looking for something thats less of a commute, and even closing the book on broadcast all together.
Heck its been almost 20 years of this. Maybe thats enough.
But no. No concrete plans ATM.

Opting out of the commute today. Ice storms are no joke.
Not that I haven't navigated dozens over the years, but its always risky.
And being on site for one day during the last week of my job doesn't really seem worth the risk if I'm being honest.

Happy Maple Syrup Day!
Canada produces 80% of the world's pure maple syrup, and Quebec produces 91% of Canada's maple syrup.
It is something that is quintessentially Canadian.
This is its history.

The loss of Still Game from Netflix may be what tips the scales for this house.
