According to Ms. Mod, Sai King wants to just forget about his birthday this year. :rolleyes: I'll give you a hint, it ends in a zero!

It's been my experience that folks who say this type of thing (especially for a milestone b-day) spend the actual day being grumpy, then the week after being mopey saying "I can't believe no one did anything!":facepalm_smiley: So, Marsha, when he starts acting like that, you can show him the Official SKMB Stephen King 2017 birthday thread!;-D

Come on, everybody! Give it your best shot!!!

Happy 70th Birthday, Mr. King! Thank you for our wonderful playground, where we have built many friendships as we discussed your works, sullying threads along the way.

Hope you have a fabulous day, spend with family and friends!!!:love_heart:

Turning 70 means two things: you survived the 60s and you survived your 60s. Happy Birthday!

Now go out and champion large print novels for those in our advancing age that have a tough time with small print. Of course that mean’s his novels would probably weigh about 10 pounds.

Happy Birthday Mr. King sir! I am very much looking forward to yours and your sons book at the end of this month. You shouldn't worry. I think it'll do well. I understand you have lots of the money. If you are divesting yourself of any due to your advanced age can you please throw some of it my way? Even if you cannot, I still like you and will continue to read what you wrote and will tell others about it as well. I hope your birthday is everything you wanted it to be and more. I bought you something very good from the local bakery but I ate it, that's why I'm writing this greeting because I cannot replace the treat. One last word of advice...you should bring back the 'u' in words like 'colour' and 'Deurry, Maine' as it would help us in Canada due to certain tax schemes tied in with this very mysterious letter. Happy Birthday, mal. =D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Everything that was fun when you were 7 is still fun when you're 70. Except maybe some of the athletic stuff. Also, sitting on the floor is still fun, but getting up isn't. Ummmm.... but telling ghost stories is still the B. E. S. T. and you're still the best at it, second only to my cousin, LeRoy, and he never writes his down, so you are winning!

Happy Birthday for real. Eat a whole cake and make everyone watch. You might get sick later, but it will be worth it.

you see,
searching through cakes for SK online made us actually want cake. Well, you know how I feel about bats, anyways, this is for Uncle Steve.
For the record, that is a triple chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting, an inscription, and a bat.
Now, I humbly apologize, but I will be having my cake, and eating it too. Mr. King, if there is any left by the time you can make it ti Derry, NH, you are more than welcome to it. Otherwise, we salute you.
