Oblique Strategies for writing?

Brian Eno famously uses Oblique Strategies http://stoney.sb.org/eno/oblique.html to help him get through creative blocks. Is there a version for writers?
Do you have any strategies of your own?

A couple of lines of cocaine work wonders.

I don't see how reciting a JJ Cale song helps?
If I was going to choose a song to help me overcome writers block I would opt for something catchy form the 70's such as the England team Mexico number 'Back Home' always does it for me.
