Dear Employer,
I'm leaving.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Yeah. I'm thinking something a little more...professional?

I still think as short as possible.
"I am resigning, effective DATE. I've appreciated the opportunity to work with you, blah blah blah."
Here are some examples, DJ: [link]
There are such things on the Web -- I think I saw them when I was looking for reference letter examples.
Perfect! Thanks y'all! At this point I just want to plug stuff in a form letter.
Huh. I just filled in a Pugh chart for the first time, and it's quite revealing. For instance, I've apparently decided that both a potato cannon and rocket-propelled chainsaw would be more fun to build than anything else which has been proposed.
Of course, they lose out on the whole legal and safe categories, but... maybe I won't show the kids my chart.
My step-dad had a potato cannon forever. It developed a crack and he had to throw it away, but man that thing was fun. Some one gave him a marshmellow blow dart gun, but it's really not the same, you know?
I am being ridiculoulsly optimistic and bookmarking that site. I'm trying to figure out how to write a good resignation letter when what I really want to say is:
Dear Boss,
You are a pompous ass who never gets anything done and you have been the bane of my existence for two years. I regret taking this job and will pray for whoever will suffer under your esteemed "leadership" next.
No love,
Me.
Myself, I'm struggling not to go with,
Dear boss,
I quit. I would say more, but I know you never actually read anything I send you, so I am not going to bother.
Thanks,
Me

How about:
Dear Boss,
Effective [DATE] I shall be ending my employment with this company. I want to thank you for the opportunities to work on communicating in difficult circumstances and taking on work that was beyond my initial purview. Your management style has certainly been a learning experience for me.
The past two years have, I felt, been a journey for me. I hope that the next people to take that journey fare as well or better than I under your guidance.
Sincerely,
