Use 6 to 8 letters, mix upper and lower case, mix in digits and
puncutation.
Use two words together with a punctuation mark, like * or $ or _
between. Deliberately mispell one or both of the words. Make sure
whatever you use isn't in the dictionary.
If you use your name, leave out vowels and replace some of the
other letters with their ascii encodings. Other folk will have
suggestions that are perhaps better. These work for me.
