There are a couple different ways you could do this.

The solution that I think is least complicated would be to make one
list randomly call between two procedures.  The only item in each of
those procedures would be a list with two additional attributes:
MAIN, WORD, where the WORD attribute contains the corresponding word
to each MAIN.  Then you have your presentation procedure and you're
done.
