[maxmsp] 'Tumbling letters' effect

Apologies for apparent laziness, and for not directing this at the Jitter
forum, but for reasons below I'm deliberately casting wide...
 My wife is involved in a theatre piece for which they need a projection of
falling letters - you know the kind of thing, random slo-mo typewriter style
letters tumbling from the sky....
It sounds like the sort of thing that would be quite doable with Jitter, but
downloading/learning Jitter is still on my 'to do' list, and I find myself
too busy right now. I'm guessing that LCD might also be my friend here, but
I'm not too big on that either.
 I could probably do it in Final Cut Pro/Motion/Live Type, but was wondering
if there happen to be any such Max/Jitter patches already out there...?
TIA
Roger
