The quick and dirty way I sometimes use for picking passwords is to pick a
likely-looking string of x characters (x > 8) from my last PGP-encrypted
message. I sometimes also interleave this with a string of y characters
(<=4) picked at whim from the expansion of pi or e, which I keep around.
Yes, I know I'm weird. ;-)

God is silent. Now if we can only get Man to shut up.
