A start page just for me

Ok, I built a start page just for myself, I attatched it so you can see (it's rediculously simple)... I am going to use it to remind myself of things whenever I get online... I edit the file whenever there's something important I need to remember... What I'd like to do, though, is somehow have random bible verses or important quotes or something show up whenever I loaded it... Remember, this stuff could be local and I'd actually prefer it to be local so I could edit the list whenever I wanted... I saw Mith do something like that with his signiature once, I was wondering if someone could tell me how to do that?

This javascript should do it. Just paste this whole thing where you want the text to show up. Add more elements to the array "text[n]" to make it work. Just be sure none of your quotes have quotation marks or you'll get an error. Also, increment in whole (integer) numbers.

<script language="Javascript">
var text=new Array()
text[0]="Thing 1.";
text[1]="Thing 2.";
text[2]="Thing 3.";
text[3]="Thing 4.";
var number_things = text.length;
var randomNum=Math.floor(Math.random()*number_things) -1;
if (randomNum < 0) { randomNum = 0; }
document.write(text[randomNum] + "Using: " + randomNum);
</script>
