I think you are confusing two things here: querying the DB in views and
displaying the output through templates.
To get your object in a random order, add the order_by('?') to the view, see
(see http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/ordering/)
Then you can just iterate through your (randomly ordered result) with a
template for loop.
