Just fyi, if you have a password mnemonic, you should NEVER share that with anyone. If a malicious party learned of it, knowing the rules by which you formulate your password can help them generate a highly-targeted dictionary attack with average success runtimes orders of magnitude lower than an unassisted cracking attempt. Moreover, knowing the mnemonic basically lets an attacker extrapolate ALL of your passwords.
No, what I describe only applies to usernames, never passwords. For that, it helps to have several hiding places where you can hide different parts of a printed guide.
