Ok, this just screams out for a joke -

A man walks into a bar with a parrot and a Zebra. The bartender says “hey, you can’t bring those animals in here!” The man say “hell yes I can, they ain’t just animals; they is my special Obama animal squad- just like Obama’s truth squads. The Zebra was born in Kenya, the parrot was raised in Indonesia and we can go anywhere we want.” Well, the bartender thinks for a minute and asks “how do you fit in?” The parrot answered “he’s a horse’s a$$ from Chicago who thinks he’s God.

Officer, the zebra and the parrot were supposed to be the designated drivers but they forgot their wallets!

Why a “small” zebra?

It was a compact car.

Never go drinking with a parrot.

“Polly wants a martini! Polly wants a martini!” They’ll drive you nuts.

Was the Zebra sitting on his lab and did he have a smile on his face?

Or was it the parrot?

I heard this on the RUSH weekend recap....thanks for the links. The lady seems nice and rather rational. I guess she is covering for the man, who looks pretty far gone.

Sad. I think she probably takes very, very good care of those animals (maybe including him, not to be mean). Now, they are probably going to lose the one big thing they care about.

But...if he was driving drunk with them? Bizarre story, all the way around.

...And now, we know where those dumb jokes come from.
