As you would all know it's Daniel Handler's birthday on the 28th of February. In honour of this special event I will be organizing a Birthday card consisting of Birthday messages from 667 members. If you would like to participate please write you birthday wishes in this thread or PM me and I'll put them in the card for you.
Also suggestions can go in this thread about layout, a main message etc.
EDIT: I will be writing your usernames next to your messages. If you wish to remain anonymous or if you wish to be identified by your real name please attach it to your message or PM me.
I will be putting the card together on the 13th of February and sending it on the 14th so could you please submit your Birthday Wishes by then.
Thank you.

Message from me: Happy birthday Mr. Handler! I hope it is not as unfortunate as Violet or Klaus's birthday!

"Happy Birthday, Mr. Handler! (If you are not Daniel Handler, do not remove this message from the sugar bowl.)"
---
(If the card has a main message, it should be something short and to-the-point. "Baleful Birthday Wishes"?)

Shall we interpret the phrase 'write' literally? I suppose not. I'll type my message.
Have a most unhappy birthday, Mr. Handler. What a glorious day it shall be; the moment we honor the anniversary of the very first day he arrived on earth! I would send a plethora of heart-shaped balloons if I only could discover their whereabouts.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Handler. I didn't have the time, knowledge, energy, or amount of space between bloodthirsty mutant catfish to put this in sebald code, so just pretend it is.

If you are reading this, Daniel Handler, Happy Birthday.. If you are not reading this, Mr Handler, have a happy birthday anyway. And I dearly hope you are not in a jail cell, coffin, or computer programming classroom with horribly slow Internet access.

Un-Happy Birthday, Mr. Handler! Here's hoping that you stay out of trouble long enough to see Book 13 published.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Handler! Hopefully, you won't grow too old this year. Though death always gets nearer and nearer every day...
But nevertheless, if you can speak Finnish, Hyvää syntymäpäivää! (Happy Birthday)

And I dearly hope you are not in a jail cell, coffin, or computer programming classroom with horribly slow Internet access. Our computer programming classroom doesn't have internet access at all. I'm sure that reading all these random people's birthday wishes would be rather tedious to Mr. Handler, so I wouldn't like to say anything. |

"Mr. Handler, I am sorry that we are a tedious bunch, but I am joining the group and wishing you a happy birthday as well. I hope that our long, uninteresting messages will not bore you to death, as you have just narrowly escaped death before. If you live to see your birthday even after reading this, I hope you will have a splendid day."

Dear Mr. Handler: Fortunately, you have reached another birthday. Unfortunately, this means that you are getting older. Fortunately, you have thousands of fans who want to wish you Happy Birthday. Unfortunately, this means you will be spending a large part of your regrettably short life reading these birthday messages. Fortunately, one of these Happy Birthday greetings is from me. Happy birthday.

Mr. Handler, I hope you live to another birthday to record the Baudilaire's final unfortunate chronicle. If you are not Mr. Handler, check your smoke detector. If you are Mr. Handler, let's hope you're reading this in a nice quiet alcove instead of a damp basement, horseradish factory, or yak stable. If you are/ aren't Mr. Handler, let's hope you're checking your smoke detector and reading this in a nice quiet alcove. Happy Birthday, Mr. Handler! (or some notorious villian, UN-happy birthday!)
