Dear Linden, Dear Linden, why is Second Life broke?
The grid is grey-gooed and your blog is a joke.
With all of the money that we pay to you
Can't you hire yourself a programmer or two?

Unverified, Unverified, we hear what you say
but at Linden Labs, we like it this way
We know how to fix it--and probably should
just keep crossing your fingers and knocking on wood

Dear Linden, Dear Linden, the most recent update
so corrupted my textures I must always rebake
Tomorrow I partner and don't know what to do
all my clothing is missing and my custom skin too

No Inventory, No Inventory, we hear what you say
but at Linden Labs, we like it this way

Dear Linden, Dear Linden, I need some relief
whenever I log on I always get griefed
In your quest for a million was this foreseen?
Could you please now turn off your PR machine?
Signed, A Furry

Furry, Dear Furry, we hear what you say
but at Linden Labs, we like it this way
We know how to fix it--and probably should
just keep crossing your fingers and knocking on wood

Dear Linden, Dear Linden, Won't you give us a choice
to stick with the chat and get rid of the voice
once my partner finds out I'm a man
I do not think that he'll understand
Signed, Roleplayer

Roleplayer, Roleplayer, we hear what you say

Dear Linden, Dear Linden,I just don't understand
the new terms of service about using your brand.
Registered trademarks and copyright signs,
must I use them all of the time?
Signed, a Blogger

Blogger,Dear Blogger, we hear what you say
and at Linden Lab (R) we don't like things this way
but our lawyers insist that it must be done.
We sincerely hope it won't ruin your fun
Signed, a Linden (TM)

Considered by many to be their favorite. I know Rocky really loves this one. Over time it kept getting added to. See the blog posts for more info on what led to the changes. If you've heard the John Prine original, "Dear Abby, Dear Abby" then you'll even better appreciate it.
