For normal day to day use, significant words/numbers are fine such as: veRitAs!4?aequiTaS  --  Translated: Truth 4 Justice (The CAPS letters spell out RATS = star backwards)

For sports fans, Sniper's formula is easy to use:

Brett#4Favre

Just pick some obscure player in any sport and find out what number they wore (or number was otherwise significant).

Anything over 11 characters is too long.  Yes, it is more secure, but it increases the chances that your employees will write them down, leaving you vulnerable to social engineering.

True.  Although, no matter how "strong" your password is, a keylogger placed on your computer will record it just fine.  Thus, your password is only as secure as you are, and unfortunately, employees go on very sketchy websites using their workstations quite often. 

I'm going to be in the market for a new password real soon. Yay!!  Can't wait until I get started in Cryptography :P

Another key of password safety: Make sure you type it in the right box, and not your instant messenger.
