I hope her birthday is full of everything she could wish for.
Does anyone here know of a way to send our collected greetings to the Queen?

Gee guys, all I was doing with this thread was wishing Her Majesty a happy 85th birthday. Would it be too harsh of me to ask those who wish to take us into realms of church and state -- and ultimately into closure -- to open their own darn threads?

No, ThistleDown, it wouldn't be harsh at all. In fact, it would exactly what is needed.
I wish Her Majesty a very happy birthday, and many more of them.

It would not be too harsh at all Rex. But in all fairness my friend, you did shift from a simple "Happy Birthday Your Majesty" to the length of her reign, to comparing her time as Queen, visually at least, with all of the American Presidents who have been in office during her reign which brought with it a bit of political flavor. That was followed by Sandy's comparison with Canadian heads of state etc.
With that said, I will gladly join you in wishing Her Majesty the happiest of birthdays. 
Best wishes,
Brooke

While I certainly wish our Queen a very happy anniversary of her actual birth date. Here in Canada we have always celebrated the 24th of May as Victoria Day which was Queen Victoria's birthday. As she was Queen for so long (65 years?) and the date so nicely matches with our spring and when you can count on frost free nights to plant gardens. We have celebrated the spring and all the Monarch's birthday since (whenever they were actually born) on May 24th ever since with fireworks, a long weekend, and too much beer.
I am looking forward to it!
God Save Our Queen.
