I just saw the Ultimate Rejection letter thread before and had to post my own version. FYI - I posted it on my blog back on October 19th. Someone had told me about the Ultimate Rejection letter beforehand and I thought the concept was so funny I cobbled together my own version using phrases from all of my rejection letters and came up with this.

Dear Ms. Agent:
Thank you for your letter of October 17, 2007. I'd like to apologize for the impersonal nature of my letter. Rest assured that I do read every rejection letter carefully and unfortunately this rejection letter is just not right for me. However, these decisions are highly subjective and another writer may have a completely different opinion from mine.
This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving a large number of rejection letters. With such a diverse and promising field of rejections, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.
Despite your outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting writers, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore, I have decided to accept you as my agent and will forward you a copy of my completed manuscript for your immediate representation. I will arrive in New York on November 8th and look forward to meeting you at your offices at that time.
Best of luck in rejecting future clients.
Sincerely,
Rejected NoMore
P.S. I would appreciate if you did not call security when I arrive.
