WENATCHEE -- A 29-year-old Wenatchee man told police a pterodactyl caused him to drive his car into a light pole about 11:30 p.m. Thursday.

Wenatchee police cited the man with first-degree negligent driving. A breathalyzer test showed "a minimal amount of alcohol," said Wenatchee police Sgt. Cherie Smith. ...

When police asked the man what caused the accident, his one-word answer was "pterodactyl," Smith said. A pterodactyl was a giant winged reptile that lived more than 65 million years ago.

Perp: "Pterodactyl!"

Officer: "So, was that a European pterodactyl or an African pterodactyl?"

No, that couldnt be it

A Pterodactyl wasn’t addressed in the Constitution, so it can’t be real. 8-)

Nope. I got a copy of “Monter Spotter’s Guide to North America” by Scott Francis as a gag gift for Christmas. It has a drawing in it that looks like one of the flying monkeys from “The Wizard of Oz”. On the other hand, there are supposed to be some photos floating around the net somewhere.

Give him points for creativity. After all, when you need an excuse, any one will do.

Didn’t Ted Nugent have a song called “Batsquatch Fever?”

I believe it was "Sasquatch Fever". His homage to the Northwest U.S.

It would sure be interesting to see what happens in court when he tells a judge that! The fine curve tends to get steeper the bigger the A-Hole.

And all this time I thought Joseph Farah was older than 29.

Or there are two people on the earth foolish enough to believe that there are still pterodactyls living on this planet.

I would think this would be more appropriate for a Dennis Kucinich supporter!

A friend of ours told me about seeing a pterodactyl years ago and how it scared the bejeebus out of her. She was not drunk nor on drugs though she may have been sleep deprived at the time she told me. I think hubby was sitting there as well. The friend said it came out of the mountain and swooped down near the road where she was driving. She said there is a legend about a pterodactyl living in the mountains nearby. I ain’t ne’er seen one, but we haven’t been here long. heh.
