Notice that because multiple handlers need a way to access a message indexed at either a random or specific number, a global function, getMessage() is defined. getMessage() is outside any of the handler classes so that it can be used multiple times:

def getMessage(any_list,specificNumber=0):
    #if there is no second parameter passed, then pick a random index
    if specificNumber == 0:
        index = random.randint(0,len(any_list)-1)
    #if there is a specificNumber, then use that to index the messages
    else:
        index = specificNumber
    return any_list[index]
