Oh, so it's your birthday?
Well, I thought maybe a birthday thread would be nice. Just pop on over here and let us know if you're a year older, and we'll all shower you with well wishes, virtual gifts, or perhaps the best birthday gift of all--silence. 
Anyway, though it perhaps seems horribly self-serving:
Howdy! I'm Tantalus, and today (July 5th) is some undisclosed anniversary of my 29th birthday...
There's only one thing on my wish list. Anyone care to guess? (Hint: it's only tangentially related to Sherlock)
(Boss, could we pin this one?)

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

Actually, she had a busy day of it, what with the American centennial celebrations and all...
Happy Birthday Tanty!

Bummer. Not even once?

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

Happy birthday from Germany, Tantalus! Didn't you wish for the wonderful green grass that grows beneath the Pulverbatch sign 
?

But the thing is, we've taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that's left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact. (Miss Marple)

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Well, I guess I did, though that wasn't the one I was thinking of. Hard to keep it to just one wish on your birthday, you know.
We had a rain shower today, so I may get that wish after all...

Well, not that I would expect any congratulations or nice Ben pics, but I just wanted to let you know that tomorrow (26th) will be my birthday
