If inclined, one could write a reverse acronymer.
With Perl and a word list one could find mnemonics like:
seek frozen panda waffles
seek fattened pizza witches
seek fierce psychedelic wives
I never cared for 'Every good boy does fine'. Maybe I can lobby
for 'Extinct goats burn dry footballs'?

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my ($string, $num) = @ARGV;
my ($DICT) = '/usr/share/dict/words';
my (%words, @chs, $ch, $line, $i);
@chs = split('', $string);
for $ch (@chs) {
if (!defined($words{$ch})) { $words{$ch} = []; }
}
if (!open(IN, $DICT)) { print STDERR "\nError:$DICT\n\n"; exit; }
while (chomp ($line = <IN>)) {
$ch = substr($line, 0, 1);
if (defined($words{$ch})) { push (@{$words{$ch}}, $line); }
}
for ($i = 0; $i < $num; $i++) {
for $ch (@chs) {
print "$words{$ch}->[rand(@{$words{$ch}})] ";
}
print "\n";
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
