No, for real.

Local news story, not too far from here that's apparently been picked up for national mockery. Apparently the guy had a friend on the way to pick them up and drive them home, but the keys were in the ignition and that got the man an OWI. Reports are the man is a very nice guy and treats the animals very well!

He was actually carrying a poster for the new Madagascar movie.

I loved the mug shot on the news this morning. Perfect picture for what you'd expect of a drunk man that drives around with a parrot and zebra in the car.

Zebra Mixed drink:
2 shots black sambuca
2 shots white tequila

Directions: Layer it in a cocktail glass then light it up. Breath the fumes and then suck it all up in a straw.

It's now a bar! Let's throw some of these back in honor of the zebra! Apparently it has been known to make you see black and white stripes...

I saw a horse tied to a chain linked fence when my husband took me to a restaurant for Mother's Day. There wasn't a horse trailer in the parking lot, so I assume he was ridden there.

Yes, I live in Texas. Yes, it's a small town. But that was a first for me.

Not as exotic as a parrot or zebra, but something that makes you scratch your head and go, "hmm."

A zebra and a parrot are equal to one owl?

I wonder if the parrot and Zebra were drinking too? I'll bet the guy would have gotten away with it if the parrot wouldn't have talked....
