What I do is to pick a song or poem that I know well, and use 1 line of the
song each month. I'll reduce some words to just letters and replace some
letters with numbers. All I need to remember is the song, the line and what
conversion method I'm using.
Say for example Sting's song Desert Rose, I might get the following 4
passwords from the first 2 verses:
1DoR1DoGitDSand
1WiV1DoLaTRtmHand
1DoFTDaTtaHtwNTire
A1tFHSPitSoaMDesire
It's usually complex enough for most systems and it's a little easier to
remember than some made up mess.
