Today’s public service announcement is brought to you by US Cellular

Lee drove home from the waterpark yesterday. On the way home he got a phone call on his cell phone. He flipped his phone open and started yapping away.

Next thing I know he got off on the next exit. Before we left the waterpark I mentioned that I was thirsty so I thought maybe he was getting off at this particular exit because he knew there was a gas station nearby. I didn’t see a gas station. In fact all I saw was corn fields, but I thought maybe Lee knew something I didn’t know.

After a minute or so he said, “where am I going?”

“Um, I have no clue. I thought you knew.” I said.

Right before he got off on this very wrong exit there was a sign proclaiming our exit to be in 2 miles. Since Lee was distracted by the phone he saw a sign for our exit and just exited at the nearest turn.

So this, my friends, is your public service announcement for this week. Don’t talk on your cell phone while driving (especially in California where it’s illegal) because who knows where you’ll end up.
