I have develop a cool way to build passwords. Actually, they're easy words, I 
mean, in any sort of dictionary attack it would be found out but, I use 
another way to convert them into a strage word with no meaning at all.

So using two common words i build a strong password which has no meaning for 
anyone but me (cause I know what the original words were), and for sure a 
(normal, with normal I mean common ones, no clusters, no distributed 
machines, you know... :-)  ) brute force attack wouldn't be succesfull (yeah, 
I tested it)
Of course I'm not going to tell you guys what I do with my passwords :-)
