A very good password system is to use the first letters of each word from some sentence that you know really well. For example:

"Space, the final frontier.  These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise." => "StffTatvotSE"

"His name was Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it." => "HnwECSahadi"

Very hard to guess, and relatively easy to look up if you need to. Of course you have to remember what sentence goes with each of the things you have to create passwords for (you do use different passwords for everything, right?) but in the worst case you can write down a list of obscure hints for yourself. "Shatner" or "Treader" probably wouldn't help other people much to guess your passwords, especially if you don't tell other people how you create your passwords in the first place.
