Also, I'm not suggesting that lying on a resume is a good thing. Just that if you could read the hiring agent's mind, you could easily tailor the resume to say what you need for an interview. Bad idea all around, but it would probably work.

Heh, I took your walls of text and make they wallier!!
Anyways I remember those times too, it was ridicules. I don't see any problem stretching the truth on your resume... I would advise against lying though, heh.
I remember classing up my resume to get a programming job at cisco early on by throwing down there all the work I did with open source projects. One was apache, and I stated all this fantastic stuff I had done, and it was all true but accomplishing those was literally like 10 lines of code. None of those being critical bug fixes or anything either.
