So I take it your boss is light-weight?

Hmmmmm... heres what i would do: make an *easy* to remember password. Write
it down on a piece of paper 20-30 times, (and then tear up the paper so
someone else wont know it) Then get the 'hash' value of that password. Save
the hash on your computer in a TXT file. That way, if you forget it, you can
'guess' it, compare the guess hash to the stored hash... you get the idea.
