Spew: Random Headline Generator

Spew is a random headline generator, originally written in 1987 by Greg Smith. I have mirrored it here because I've always really liked it, and because it seems to be relatively hard to find these days.

Download the source code.

While originally written to generate random (and hopefully amusing) tabloid newspaper headlines, you could use spew to generate whatever random text you like. My favorite application has been to generate randomized band names.

Generate some band names!

My band names rules file is also available in the source directory.
