You know how it works - some poor soul writes their world problems out in a letter to Dear Abby and signs it something like

Desperate in Duluth
Crazy in Concord
Sad in Sacramento


So if you wrote a letter to Dear Abby, what would your signature be?

Sincerely
Weary in Wilmington

11. Dear Abby,
I've used Cialis, and it's been more than 4 hours. Do I really need to see a doctor?

Sincerely,

19. signed John Prine
Dear Abby, Dear Abby ...
My feet are too long
My hair's falling out and my rights are all wrong
My friends they all tell me that I've no friends at all
Won't you write me a letter, Won't you give me a call
Signed Bewildered

Bewildered, Bewildered...

Chorus:
You have no complaint
You are what your are and you ain't what you ain't
So listen up Buster, and listen up good
Stop wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood

Dear Abby, Dear Abby...
My fountain pen leaks
My wife hollers at me and my kids are all freaks
Every side I get up on is the wrong side of bed
If it weren't so expensive I'd wish I were dead
Signed Unhappy

Unhappy, Unhappy...

Repeat Chorus

Dear Abby, Dear Abby...
You won't believe this
But my stomach makes noises whenever I kiss
My girlfriend tells me It's all in my head
But my stomach tells me to write you instead
Signed Noise-maker

Noise-maker, Noise-maker

Repeat Chorus

Dear Abby, Dear Abby...
Well I never thought
That me and my girlfriend would ever get caught
We were sitting in the back seat just shooting the breeze
With her hair up in curlers and her pants to her knees
Signed Just Married

Just Married, Just Married...

Repeat Chorus

24. Yes. It's called 'opakapaka (pink snapper).
It's very tasty. Try some with your favorite fine tequila if/when you get out here. Opihi'll save you some smoked wild pig meat for an appetizer. Ono! (delicious)

29. I did write a letter to Dear Abby
signed with "Born in the Maze". I suspect she would have changed it to "Angry in Albuquerque", if it had been published.
