These kinds of password strategies are actually not that good as people tend to forget them. Better would have actually been "It was a dark and stormy night followed by Christmas". A massive attack comparison at Password Haystack

results:
"iWaDaSn1225" = 6.12 days
"It was a dark and stormy night followed by Christmas" = 68.76 thousand trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion centuries.

Which one is easier to remember?

Check it yourself.

If I ever run my own website I want to hire you to do the online security.

Thanks for the comparison/contrast.
