Career

Kelso began his television career in 1980 as co-host of PM Magazine on WANE-TV in Fort Wayne. PM Magazine was canceled and replaced by "Fort Wayne Afternoon", a program owned by WANE's parent company at that time. Kelso produced and co-hosted that program until it was discontinued. Kelso migrated into the WANE-TV newsroom first as a general assignment reporter, and then as a news anchor. He started anchoring local news within the CBS Morning News, then anchored the WANE noon newscast scoring market leading ratings for many years.

He and co-anchor Karen Hensel (now at WISH-TV, Indianapolis) created First at 5, Fort Wayne's first 5pm newscast. Before long, he anchored the 6pm and 11pm newscasts. Kelso left WANE in 1996 to assume co-ownership of Fort Wayne Internet.

Like Always

by: Motorpsycho

Phrasemaking
wondering and pondering
how things might should go on
not really having fun
Endlessly
gazing up the staicase
of tomorrows pros & cons
such overwhelming concience weighing tons
Like always
Fly by night
from the glacier smile to hide behind
so precious and so kind
So sincere
no evidence of intelligence
took time to see it through
I had no will, no vision and no clue
Like always
Growing thinner
with a shiny smile
the world is shrinking
before the Eye....
Falling too
upon the gravel road
the lonely churchyard on the hill
with too much hate to kill
Nosebleed
reminding me of snowball wars
we often ran away
and hid untill last rays of the day
