"Congratulations on reaching that big ol' Five-O!! You might notice things begin
to sag and wrinkle (I certainly did!!) but apart from that, not a lot else
changes! Seriously, it's no big deal for a man, so just celebrate and have FUN!
Have a wonderfully happy birthday...
With lots of love 'n' hugs"

"Jamie, the happiest of birthdays to a very special member of our B&B world.
I was there at the beginning... and at Austin... but I cannot even begin to
imagine our gatherings without your presence. Your caring and your humor has
touched us, and as Vincent would say, "there are no words..."
except.... maybe...

"Congratulations and best wishes on your remarkable achievement!
Anyone who can survive for 50 years with their sense of humor...and style...intact
deserves kudos! You make every con a special experience, and even though we
don't know each other personally, I always have "warm fuzzies" in my heart
when I think of you! Happy birthday!"

"Dear Jamie,

"Hey Bud! You're 50 and I'm not! (But you and I have had that conversation
already, so I'll move along to the real point of this note. :-D)

I delight in taking this public opportunity to wish for you a truly, truly
wonderful birthday. May the love and support you've given to me over the
course of our friendship be repaid to you a hundredfold...both as you read
the comments of your friends here on this page, and in the coming years
ahead. I know that I, for one, will definitely be in your corner...as you
have been in mine, doing what I can to let you know how special you are.

Happy, happy, happy 50th.... Wish I could hug you right now!

Love you, Bud."

"Dear Jamie/Myhr
May you have a wonderful day.
Just in case you (especially Myhr) teased me at Masquerades last year (there
was both disappointment and profound relief that you didn't) I brought along
some chocolate mice, rats and even an orange fish to dangle under your
feline nose to make you behave.
They're eaten now (many thanks from my son) but they say it's the thought
that counts so see those goodies in essence winging their way to you now.
Lots of love"

 "I first met Myhr in Austin, Texas in 1993. I was greatly appreciative of
his humor and ability to roll with whatever happened. In 1996 in Norfolk, I
learned from Myhr that the blue M&M's that we pick out( because we don't
like the color) are considered aphrodisiacs. We've sorted them out and
passed them on to him since then.
Jamie is a talented artist and a dear. Happy Birthday! May your special
day be purrfectly wonderful!"
Kay Anderson (Denver)

"It's Jamie's birthday I hear
So it must be Myhr's too, I fear
Should my gifts be humanly nice
Or feline-ish catnip-filled mice
To celebrate their 50th year? 

But it's too late to snail mail a gift
And I must send something (or they'll both be so miffed)
So some clever prose will have to do
And a "redeem for a hug" IOU
And I hope it gives them both a lift! 

Happy Birthday to both of you...
and I hope the best in your lives is still yet to come.

"Jamie,
here's wishing you all the best on this landmark birthday. Take it
from one who saw 50 a few years ago, it is only a number if you remain young
at heart. I give you the following quote from an unknown author, " Those who
love deeply never grow old, they may die of old age but they die young".
Many happy returns and hope to see you in New York!"
