The output generates a sentence made up of words chosen randomly from

I would suggest that 'wordList' return a tuple (which it sort of does
but not quite what I have in mind:-) making eventual printing much
easier as in """ print "%s %s %s %s %s." % wordList """. (Modification
needed to make it Python3 vs 2.7, I believe.)
