Tim Johnston's "Wardrobe Malfunction"

Tim, checking in, with yet another "non-crime" related blog. Sorry.

I'll get back to that stuff soon enough.
But for now, allow me to amuse you with a silly moment I recently had while anchoring a weekend show!
I've been anchoring the KRBC Weekend newscast for just a handful of months now, and if you've watched, you've likely caught some silly moments in my shows.
I'm human.
It happens.
Keep watching, I'm bound to top it. (a la Girl Scout Cookie Moment-- different blog for a different time)

Back to the blog- Working at KRBC, and in the "real world," for 2 and a half years now I've learned a lot of things.. like tying a tie and how to "Dress for Success."
I'm confident enough to tie my tie without looking...
Only thing is, I'm not consistent enough. Yep, that's a good 4-6 inches ABOVE the belt line.. not even trying to hide it. How's that for dressing for success? (Btw- Mom, I'd never go out in public like this!)
Good thing, as an anchor I have a jacket that covers this "malfunction" and a desk to further hide the lack of length.
Maybe that's why most male anchors wear the jacket buttoned up, or even why men like former WFAA Weatherman Troy Dungan went away from the tie and rocked the bow tie.
Hmm, he might be on to something...

Anyway, I hope my malfunction amuses you as much as it did me, maybe I'll give you more to enjoy on the weekends! Thanks for watching!

Laugh with me.. Leave a comment!
