Post Your Birthday Greetings To Haruo Nakajima!

Above, Haruo Nakajima and his alter ego.

On January 1, Haruo Nakajima (a.k.a. "Mr. Godzilla") will turn 82.

It has been a tradition on this blog for the past two years to have fans post their birthday greeting messages for Mr. Nakajima. I, in turn, pass them along to his daughter Sonoe. She sees to it that he receives them.

So, now's the time to post your birthday greetings to a man who has entertained us with his Godzilla and other kaiju performances for many years. Just post your message below in the comments and I'll see to it that Sonoe Nakajima receives them to give to her dad.

Remember, Mr. Nakajima will be a guest at next year's Monsterpalooza in Burbank!

UPDATE (12/31/10): I sent off the received greetings along with a link to this blog post to Sonoe Nakajima, so she can present them to her dad, earlier this afternoon. She will be able to pass on any "late arrivals" to her dad through the link.

Thanks to everyone who posted their birthday greetings to "Mr. Godzilla!"
