I need a simple random English sentence generator. I need to populate it with my own words, but it needs to be capable of making longer sentences that at least follow the rules of English, even if they don't make sense.

I expect there are millions of them out there, so rather than re-inventing the wheel, I'm hoping you know of a source for one, or a resource that will give me enough information that I don't have to hunt down my rusty English skills.
