Now I am sure you are all familiar with that charming little song ‘Happy Birthday to You’. What I would like you to do is put new lyrics to the tune, in honour of Mr. Holmes, Dr. Watson, and Dr. Watson’s splendid stories.
Dr. Watson has himself furnished me with an example:
Haven't you heard of a bin?
Please stick all your papers
In your box made of tin.
Yes… Well, I am certain you can all do better than that. Please leave all your efforts in the comments—and happy birthday,

The sloth makes an appearance
For some woodcock and grouse

Doesn't want a Romeo.
But the front door has a door-belle...
And the violin has a beau.

Your life’s just begun! [unless the Russians shut you down, in which case, there’ll be none and we’ll have to resort to carrier pigeons, smoke signals, or posting to the 1895 in our minds]
Holmes Minor, you’re one!

And if LJ ever does close down their English language side, I'm sure we'll all find somewhere else to gather together. It's a big internet out there ^_^
