Passwords I'd like to use

With the all the Heartbleed news, (a computer security issue) I've spent a good portion of my evening trying to figure out some easier to remember strong passwords.

The Hotel makes us change them on a regular basis, and they've gone from 8-12 characters to a minimum of 15.

So at home, I'm trying to have a middle ground: strong passwords that are easy to remember.

Some I've thought about but won't use are:

• My phone number + my home address (postal). I might run out of characters with that one.
• Engl3bert!Humperd1nck. (just too oddball)
• Pick an expletive (I have used them in the past...because that's what I'm thinking whenever I have to change them).

So I'm going to go with some other options.

• Hiding in plain sight with non-standard characters (wherever I c@n!)
• Plenty of hints
• Creating a passphrase

Hope you enjoy your evening...back to the changing of the passwords. More later!
