Cover Letters That Don't Work

I'm kicking myself in the ass and getting back into the job hunt (hence the almost minutely posts in a very successful temp to procrastinate.) I am going through my old cover letters to see if I can salvage pieces for the new ones. Pieces like this, which perhaps explain why I have been unemployed for a year:

If I could change my first name to "Writer", my middle name to "/", and my last name to "Strategist" to prove how committed I will be as a Writer/Strategist at PCI Communications, I would. Unfortunately, the judge denied my request. But I can show you how my experience will help PCI Communications further its award-winning efforts to provide communication strategies and support to its clients.
