On ActivePython 2.4.3:
>>> from random import *
>>> seed()
>>> [choice(dict((x+1,0) for x in range(1000))) for x in range(693)][0]

File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "C:\Python24\Lib\random.py", line 249, in choice
return seq[int(self.random() * len(seq))] # raises IndexError if seq is
empty
KeyError: 0
