Ok,

I have realized what I really want is:

1.) to be able to insert a random link per category (that I define in the call)

So, I can use this random link per category elsewhere on the site, as well as on my Links main page. It seems like this would be something other folks would want to do as well, no?

2.) random link from entire db. This I might call on the front page of my entire website. a way to pull folks into the stories section. (I am using LinksSQL to run stories on my site)

can anyone explain how I'd do these two things??
