Toss this:

"Pursuant to said resume attached, I have compiled and codified a list of attributes, and carefully analyzed characteristics necessary to extrapolate my purpose and penchant for kind of work you articulated with extreme verbosity on your web site under item, "Available Positions." That said, I ask your kind permission to garner a private conference with you so I might bring to your attention...

At this point, if he gets that far, employer will shred letter as well as any thought of contacting you for an interview.

HOW TO COMBAT BIG BAD WORD-ITIS: Read your cover letter aloud. The moment you hear, feel, or say a word or phrase that twists your tongue and fogs your brain, take it out. Rewrite until words and sentences roll off your tongue and you feel yourself smiling. Hey this sounds good! Display your passion for position and clearly ASK for job interview.

I'm rooting for you! Clear concise language is so rare in business world today, that those who can master it will land interview of their dreams--and job that's behind it.

Your mind, which embodies this "thing" called "creativity", is source of all ideas. It is best computer ever devised. However mind-boggling next generation of computers may be, that master computer between your ears is only Amechanism@ that can come up with original ideas and be responsive to flow of these Amental images of imagination@.

These images are a glimpse into future. It is vision which is defined by Webster as, "the act or power of perceiving mental images (ideas) in imagination". Jonathan Swift noted that, "Vision is art of seeing invisible". Helen Keller was quoted as having said, "Worse than being blind , is to have no vision".

Remember, computer and all its associated technologies are merely outward manifestation of someone=s creative thinking. Remember too, that an effect cannot, and never will, initiate any action of its own. It must forever be subservient to its primal cause and source: creativity.

It was Victor Hugo who reminded us that "there is nothing more powerful than right idea whose time has come". That time is now!

Take time to marvel at computer with all its wonder, with all its contributing technologies and its capacity to make such a significant contribution to our way of life. But always reserve a quiet place in your mind where you can retire from pressures imposed by "real world" and take time to THINK
