I tend to agree, but since he asked for a mnemonic...
What Python Needs to Return a Boolean
AND: Both I demand!
OR: One or more.
So,
if A and B are False:
[think "Both I demand...are False")
if A or B are False:
[think "One or more...are False")
if A and B are True:
[think "Both I demand...are True")
etc.
