BirthdayCardFilter: Give me your best pun for this birthday card. Making a b-day card for my younger brother. He's turning 23 in October and is in his first year of grad school for psychology. He just recently moved into his first apartment.

Currently, the back of the card is blank and this image is on the front.

Just trying to put a smile on his face when he gets this in the mail.

Thanks!

What would make a Tesla-themed birthday card awesome?

I'm designing a Tesla-themed birthday card for a friend, last-minute. What do you think would make it awesome? Hey Gang.... I'm not terribly knowledgeable about Tesla myself, but I've got a buddy who idolizes him. Another friend just had the idea to make the card, which we'll give to him tonight.

Any ideas you have about this, from graphics to use to quotes or content, would be greatly appreciated. My buddy's the fun-loving nerdy type, so anything goes!

Thanks in advance!

Make my card-signings witty!

What witty things can I write on co-workers cards? About once a month cards get passed around our office for everyone to sign. Writing "Happy Birthday!" and "Congratulations on your new addition to the family!" and "It's been great working with you, good luck at your new job" seems so lame, but I can never think of wittier things to write, especially on the spot, for people I don't know too well.

Help me come up with a few good things to write for all of life's occasions - birthday, wedding, baby, leaving the company, promotion, death in the family - so I would have a good stock to choose from next time I have to sign a card.

For that fake personalised card touch

I need to send a birthday card to a US friend by Dec 23rd. Unfortunately, I've just missed the last post for transatlantic posts. I keep hearing of online services that'll post the card for me in the US - but can you suggest any? Also, any that allow me to "scan" in my handwriting for that personal touch get bonus points.
