It was a sunny Saturday, and I was cruising down the freeway with my wife. Music was blasting, and everything felt perfect—until it didn’t. Suddenly, I remembered I needed to check something on my phone.
“Why are you pulling over?” my wife asked, confused.
“Hand me my phone!” I replied, my voice filled with urgency.
“We’re on the freeway!” she exclaimed, wide-eyed.
“Hand. Me. My. PHONE!” I insisted, feeling a sense of impending doom if I didn’t check it immediately.
She glanced at the cars whizzing by and sighed. “Okay, but this is a terrible idea!”
As I pulled over to the shoulder, I fumbled for my phone, ready to check my social media updates. But just then, a squirrel dashed across the road, causing a car to swerve wildly.
“See? This is exactly why we don’t pull over on the freeway!” my wife said, shaking her head.
I finally got my phone in hand and turned to her with a sheepish grin. “You know, I didn’t even remember what I needed to check. I just wanted an excuse to stop and grab a snack!”
She rolled her eyes. “You mean to tell me we could’ve just waited until the next exit for a snack?”
“Yep!” I chuckled. “But at least we have a good story now, right?”
Moral of the Story: Sometimes, it’s better to be patient and think things through before making a rash decision. And never underestimate the power of a good snack break—just make sure it’s safe!

McDonough, known for roles like Malcolm Beck in Yellowstone, Timothy ‘Dum Dum’ Dugan in Captain America: The First Avenger, and General James Harding in Project Blue Book, revealed that he was blacklisted from Hollywood in 2010 due to his staunch Christian beliefs.
He faced repercussions after refusing to participate in certain scenes, such as kissing and adult-oriented scenes, while working on ABC’s Scoundrels TV show.
