Without very basic knowledge of HTML you will be in trouble, because nobody knows where you want to place it.
Probably best method:
Open head.tpl file in text editor (Notepad)
There is a part of main HTML code, you can see somethig like that: <td></td>
this is table data opening <td> and closing tag </td>
Paste $sRandomProduct between them, save file, upload and open main page, there your RandomProduct should appears.
Pleased? If not try another location, search for <td> tags
Hint: <td .... some code...> is table data opening tag with parameters, don't carry about it, place your $sRandomProduct just after ">".
Hint 2: The place under category menu in head.tpl file looks like that:
<td class='menu_left'>$sMenuCategories</td>
and what about somethink like that:
<td class='menu_left'>$sMenuCategories $sRandomProduct</td>

have nice fun!
