Try the attached python filter and see how it suits you.
You can use it in a pipe like this:

    $ cat that-data-quoted-above.txt | python timerander.py

However, if you're tryint to "humanize" the data, you might
consider replacing the line that has random.randint(min,
max) with something like:

     c = int(c) + int(random.gauss(0.0, 1.0))
