Just to be flippant, the one I sometimes use is:

... Any resemblance between the above views and those of my employer, my 
terminal, or the view out my window are purely coincidental.  Any 
resemblance between the above and my own views is non-deterministic. The 
question of the existence of views in the absence of anyone to hold them 
is left as an exercise for the reader.  The question of the existence of 
the reader is left as an exercise for the second god coefficient.  (A 
discussion of non-orthogonal, non-integral polytheism is beyond the 
scope of this article.)

I got it from the fortune(6) program.

Peace...  Sridhar
