if you want a list of files from a single directory, use listdir, not walk:

      >>> import os, random

This will include folders as well, though, which isn't what the OP
asked for.

as illustrated by my example (cut and pasted from a windows machine).  oops.

    random.choice(filter(os.path.isfile, glob.glob("/*")))

isn't that bad, though.
