I prefer Happy Birthday Dr. Larrin S. Thomas, Ph.D. That way you get the PhD at the beginning and the end. Add the middle initial (S.) and the period in Ph.D for extra class and distinction.

Oh, right, i was so sorely lacking in formality. From one to another, enjoy that extra .D and the extra class and distinction it brings you. :p :D :cool:
