Not possible: The only boolean values are true and false.

If you can modify the requirements a little, though, you
might be able to generate boolean values by using Math.rand()
and a comparison, or by using java.util.Random#nextBoolean().
It's astonishing what you can find in the JavaDoc, once you
take the dreaded step of consulting it.
