Best wishes for a wonderful and fulfilling birthday. It becomes so evident that this is a small world when someone from your small region of the globe can do something that is enjoyed by so many. Stargate SG-1 is one of your best works, (you are well cast and your own special personality brings much more to the table). I hope this is but the midway point to your gift, and hope... No, I anticipate more of you in other endeavors.

Dear Mr. Anderson,

Wow, what can I say? I can remember watching you in MacGyver and having one of my first crushes on that wonderful and inventive character. Now I've gotten to see you in the show Stargate and once again I find that your charm and wit shines through always making me smile! I know it's early, but I hope you have an incredible birthday and look forward to many many more!

Hi Rick,

I wanted to tell you how much I love watching MacGyver and Stargate SG-1. Yeah I still watch MacGyver every morning. Wouldn't miss it.

Wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday. It's hard to believe another year has passed huh?? I think that every year too, and I am only 4 years older than you are.

Anyhow I hope you have a wonderful birthday and all the happiness you deserve. You are worth it.

Hope you enjoyed the roses.

All my love,

Susan
North Dakota





Bless you for that twinkle in your eye and your wonderful wit! Your light has brightened so many lives in our world - a light I've seen just grow better and wiser with the years.

Happy Birthday to You, Rick! And as we say in Cajun country, "Laissez le bon temps roule"

Dear Richard,

There is a song that speaks of embracing life - "I Hope You Dance."

Through your example, I have learned to "dance," and the rewards have been greater than you can imagine.

Thank you for being the inspiration that you are. Celebrate your special day knowing that you have made special days for so many others.

On your birthday, and throughout your life - I hope you dance.

You wanna talk about a long-term commitment?? LOL I have been a fan from the GH days, and when I was in high school my chemistry teacher would use the day after a MacGyver episode to talk about the little tricks Mac pulled to foil the bad guys. Happy B-Day! And many more to you.

Happy Birthday, Richard!

May your day be filled with the love of family and friends, and may the next year bring you continued health, happiness and success!

Happy Birthday to my favorite actor!

Wishing you a wonderful day surrounded by loving family. (Let Wylie blow out your candles for you.)

I know you would like more time with your family, but if you can get someone with brains at the networks or cable companies to listen, please do at least a few Legend made for TV movies! It's one of my favorite shows you did.

With love and respect,

To wish you the best on this day, a small poem that makes all days special:

The Best Things in Life Are Free
When we count our many blessings,
It isn't hard to see,
That life's most valued treasures
Are the treasures that are free.
It isn't what we own or buy,
That signifies our wealth,
It's the special gifts
That have no price.......
Our family, friends, and health.

Have a great day. Thanks for all that you have done for your fans.

Vickie Stephens

Happy Birthday, Richard Dean! May your special day be celebrated with the loves of your life, Apryl and Wylie, your family and friends. (Your Internet friends will be there in cyber-spirit.) Let there be laughter (of course, there is always laughter in your life), fun, love and cherished memories on this day.

Good luck with your Rivers Project! It is important to focus on the earth's rivers. They are the lifelines for many cultures, now and long ago. As a native New Yorker from the Big Apple, we have the East and Hudson Rivers. These rivers would be a great story for your project... though there are no rapids to conquer.

On your next visit to New York, I invite you and your family to stop by the Queens County Farm Museum in Floral Park (northeast Queens). This is a 1772 Dutch Colonial farmhouse that has farm animals and is farmed organically. It is the oldest, continuous working farm in New York. As a member and docent, we are preserving a way of life that is slowly disappearing across this country. I am involved with the educational program for school children. We have workshops that teach the kids about farm life and how colonial children would have lived. There is a County Fair, Apple Festival, Pow Wow and other events that people enjoy attending throughout the year. Wylie would enjoy the animals.

This is a verse that I wrote many years ago while living in Wyoming. I had lived on the Wind River Indian Reservation (Arapaho and Shoshoni tribes) as a lay volunteer at St. Stephens Indian Mission. I think it describes the feelings that you have for "Oma Desala".

Climb to the top of the mountain
And touch its highest peak,
Breathe the air that surrounds the heavens
And you will find what you seek.

With love,

Barbara Kaplowitz
New York





Best and sincere wishes for a very Happy and Healthy Birthday celebration. You have been blessed with a wonderful career, a lovely family and from all appearances, a world wide wealth of friends and fans. Congratulations and continued success in all your personal and acting endeavors.

Rick,

Congratulations and best wishes on your 52nd birthday (like you're counting, right?)! May you continue to have good luck and great success in SG-1, and on all your present and future creative/environmental/social (ad)ventures!!!!

Hope you get lots of hugs, kisses, birthday cake, ice cream, presents, and continued good fortune!

Rick,

Here's wishing you and yours a very happy New Year and a wonderful birthday!

I have been a fan of yours since your GH days (yikes... I'm dating myself here!) but loved you most on MacGyver and now Stargate.

You're a wonderful inspiration and role model for the kids and it is my hope that you continue to act in the years to come.

Good luck in this new year and best wishes for you and your family.

Hi Rick!

VERY Happy 52nd and many, many more! May you always be surrounded by things and those whom you love most!

Seems if it weren't for you being here with us, a great contingent of persons would have never done most of the things we have or will continue to do. May your energies and heart life carry you through any endeavour, and if you run out, think of us, we'll be happy to share our enthusiasm... you've been so much a part of us for so long, there's no way we could ever refuse!

The world is a greater place because of folks like you! Have the happiest of birthdays now and for years to come! UFF-DA!

FYI... did you know there is another duo in the names of Richard Anderson and Michael Greenberg (his spelling), championing the world's waterways?

Best Wishes and love always,

Denise Edmonson

Oh wow... what could I possibly say to the God of all Gods but I will start with HAPPY BIRTHDAY! and my sincerest wishes for many more to come.

You will always hold a special place in my heart and mind... thank you for everything you are.

And thank you for giving me the opportunity to spend some great time with my family... we all LOVE MacGyver, Stargate and Legend (plus all the others). My four children adore Jack and can't get enough of running around the house pretending to be SG-1 (along with their mom too of course).

Wylie is blessed and so are you... enjoy your time together.

Best Wishes and all the love we have to give.

Yo, Rick!

Happy 52nd, buddy! I want you to know you got me hooked on duct tape, so I guess you know what my friends and co-workers call me! You also (along with John Wayne), influenced me to take up acting. Keep up the great work, and God bless!

Dear Mr. Anderson,

Happy Birthday from Winchester, Virginia.

I am sending you this message to wish you a wonderful year filled of nothing but the best for you and your family.

Thank you for many years of letting us enjoy your talents on TV, you have given us many wonderful shows, and I can only hope that there will be many more.

Sincerely,

Happy Birthday Richard!

Have a wonderful birthday and upcoming year. If you give to the world half as much with your river projects as you have given us with MacGyver, Legend, and SG-1, the Earth will be a much richer place for your having been here.

I wish you continued success with your rivers and environmental projects and hope you will still have time for a Legend reunion movie (Ernest is my favorite).

The Niagara River may not be a rafting river, but I hope you will someday visit and see the Falls. I know Wylie would really enjoy seeing it and the butterfly conservatory located at the Falls in Ontario. There does not seem to be a web site for the butterfly conservatory, but you are able to walk amidst the butterflies there. I'm sure Wylie would love it. She has such a wonderful opportunity to travel with her Daddy and see places and cultures in far more depth than she could learn in any classroom. She's very lucky to have you, and so is everyone in this world that you have touched.

Happy Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I've been a fan since I first saw you on Emerald Point. My favorite character that you have played was Ernest Pratt but the warm, friendly, witty Richard Dean Anderson himself is the person I like the most.

52 has been great to me so far so I hope it is to you also.

May your life be full of goodness.

Dear Mr. Anderson:

Happy Birthday to a man who I've only known as Dr. Jeff Webber, Angus MacGyver, and Colonel Jack O'Neil. If you are anything like the characters you portray... !! You were hot then, you are HOTTER now. As MacGyver once said, "You are only as old as you feel."

If you are headed to MN this year, swing by WI and we'll watch a Packer game and have a beer.

Again, Happy Birthday to one awesomely talented man. God Bless you and your family on your special day. Have a great one!!

Birthday greetings to that truly talented, dedicated, generous and witty man... Wylie's devoted dad... our Rick... Richard Dean Anderson.

Your countless fans throughout the world care deeply about you and your family, and will forever keep you in their hearts.

I'd like to wish you a very happy birthday, Rick, and hope you have many more. I've followed your career since General Hospital and I think that my favorite series that you did is MacGyver.

Happy Birthday Richard!!!

Thanks for sharing yourself and your time with us over the years. Have very much enjoyed watching you in all the roles you have played. Will miss you on my TV screen very much when SG-1 finishes its last season. I hope that you will grace it someday again so that I might enjoy another role from you.

Until then, good luck with your River Project and also your photography. I am into that as well. I included a pic above from one of the most endangered land types there is these days, the natural prarie. The Konza Prairie Biological Station in the pic above is near me and a personal cause of mine. If you are ever in Kansas, the area is beautiful with lots of wildflowers and scenery to practice photography or just enjoy a quiet walk with your family, Apryl and Wylie.

Again, best wishes for a most happy birthday and best wishes for what ever life may bring you in the future.

Dear Rick,

I'm a homeschooling MOM (some episodes of MacGyver for science class). My Birthday gift to you is a story about our daughter, Meaghan, who is the same age as Wylie. I was watching SG-1 late one night. Meag stumbled out of bed, passing by the TV as you delivered the line "Whatcha' doin'?' from under Carter's lit magnifying glass. Without skipping a beat Meag said, "Goin' potty." Daddy was at work, so she WAS answering you. Welcome to the family! CHILDREN, OUR GREATEST GIFT IN LIFE! Happy Birthday!!!!!!!

Dani Corning

Richard -

I hope you have a wonderful birthday and that you get to spend it with Wylie, and in the midst of the rest of your family and dear friends. I wish you many years of happiness and good times. Watch yourself on those river-rafting trips and come back safely!

A little gift will be making its way to you via Ivon... from one hockey fan (me) to another (that would be you)! I hope you enjoy it and will wear it in good health. Enjoy!

Kay

Hey Richard. Wishing you the happiest of birthdays from New York City. I've been watching you since 1976 and you just improve with time, like fine wine. Thank you for all the years of entertainment and most of all for Stargate SG-1, which has enriched my life in so many ways. I hope this year brings you continued success, health and happiness for you and your family.

Much Love,

A fond Happy Birthday to you, Rick! My mother shares the same birthday with you. Best wishes to you and Apryl and Wylie in your future endeavors as a family.

Enjoy Wylie while she's still young. My boys LOVE watching SG-1 with mommy and daddy. They're only 4 and 2 1/2 years old! They've grown up with you guys!

Here's to many more years of great health and happiness.

Happy Birthday!

As a long-time fan of yours from way back, I've truly enjoyed watching you develop Jack O'Neill over the past five years. You just keep getting better and better. We're ready and raring to go for Season 6 and for the upcoming (crossed fingers) movie.

It has been a real pleasure to have a television series that I can watch (most) episodes with my daughters, ages 6 and 3. They adored Window of Opportunity, especially the juggling scenes ("He can juggle just like daddy!").

I wish all the best for you, your family, and the cast and crew of SG-1.

Again, have a wonderful birthday!

PS: My three year old wants Jack and Sam to come to her birthday party in March -- if you could pass that message along to them, I'd appreciate it.

Hi Rick,

Happy 52nd Birthday! Let me just say that I have loved you in every role that you have ever played. My favorite series would be MacGyver and Stargate SG-1. I hope to see some more great work from you soon. I hope your special day is lots of fun, and best wishes for 2002!

PS: If you are ever in Philly, look me up and we could go to a Flyers game, my treat!

Johanna Murray

Rick,

Thanks for giving so much pleasure through your acting. You have grown your craft so much from the early days of General Hospital. Although, I'm generally not a sci-fi fan, Stargate SG-1 has become my favorite show on TV. Keep up the good work and I hope the future holds nothing but happiness. May God continue to Bless you and keep you!

Terri
West Virginia





Dear RDA,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope this birthday wish finds you happy, well and with the people who mean the most to you!

I have enjoyed seeing you in the many different TV roles you have done over the years. My interest in your projects (such as MacGyver and Stargate SG-1) has not only given me a GREAT many hours of entertainment, but they have also touched my life in ways I would've never imagined.

If I am feeling sick or a bit down... I can just hop on the couch put in a video... "Hey, it's Stargate marathon time!!!" and after awhile I am into the show, laughing, and feeling much better.

I have also met the most amazing group of people, from all over the world (many of whom have left you a birthday message here) just by being a fan. In most cases, being a fan of the same show has only been a starting point for some wonderful friendships.

OK... this is starting to sound totally corny, so I'll leave it at that with a simple... Thank You!

I hope this is the best birthday yet!

Sincerely,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICK!!

I've heard it said that the one true qualification of a person who is successful is that they have a successor. Over the years, I've read how very many people have been influenced by either you personally (Michael Shanks is a major case in point), or who have been influenced through what you have done professionally - and we have quite a crop of science-oriented professionals in the world today because your role in MacGyver influenced them to pursue learning as opposed to other, less savory pursuits. You are truly a successful man, a great role model, and just an all-around great guy! I wish you abundant joy, unending peace, and all the happiness that you could ever hope to have on your birthday and every day of your life. You are truly a shining star in a sometimes very dark world.

Oh, and my furry cohort really digs that you like dogs, so she's giving you an extra tail-wag on your special day as well. Thanks for being part of our lives!

Dear Rick,

You were always my role model growing up in the 80's and you still are today. I believe that you have influenced me in every way. Whether it be making everyday decisions or taking life's adventures as they are. You've made such an impact, that I've named my kids after you. Happy Birthday!!! You are the greatest!!!

BE GREAT!!

Thank you for all that you have done over the years, especially for the laughs. Enjoy your day. You have earned it. I wish you many more.

Dear Richard,

Happy Birthday. I just thought I would tell you the impact that you have on many lives. My son is special education. He competes in the Special Olympics every year. But in the last 5 years there has been a tremendous difference in him. He took Martial Arts and got a Black Belt in Kung Fu, he started taking more interest in reading because Stargate SG-1 is now in books. And it is like you opened the gate because from the first episode of Stargate he wanted to find out about the universe and Egyptology. He is now in 4 regular classes and 4 assisted classes, because you piqued his interest and he even wants to join the Air Force.

No matter what happens in the future I will always feel that you gave him the start he needed.

Forever grateful,

Hello Rick,

I am glad you liked the magnets I sent you on your 50th birthday and I hope you have a great time this year. I will be hitting the big 50 in three more years myself!

Your work has been a very fruitful endeavor. As hard as it has been sometimes, you will always know that you have touched people's hearts from all over this globe. What more legacy could we leave than that? Wylie will be a proud heir to that.

Thank you for choosing the performing arts, and as a visual artist I know how deeply these things run in your blood. I hope Zoe is well and happy, keep her on that heartworm medicine!! (I am the Vet Tech that sent the magnets in the hartguard box as a joke).

I look forward to seeing any work you do in the future and wish you and your family the best always. I bet you're REALLY happy the Aves won the cup last year... well this year... HAHAHAHA they won't get it!! It belongs to the RED WINGS!!!

I love hockey almost as much as you do...

HUGSSSSSSSSS To you Ricky and your whole family!!

Years ago you caught my eye,
That Mac, what a do-gooding kind of guy.
Movies with characters you loved to hate,
And now dear Jack jumping through the gate.
The Brides, the Point, where ever you're at,
And my favorite of all Ernest T. Pratt.
Just want to wish you Happy Birthday, Rick
What ever you do you're always my pick.

Hope this year provides you with an abundance of happiness and blessings.

Sending to you bad rhymes, but best wishes,

Happy Birthday, Mr. Anderson!

Thank-you for all the fun you have provided for your fans for so many years. I wish you and your family health and happiness for at least the next 52 years. Just curious... do you ever watch the MacGyver reruns? I'll bet Wylie will enjoy watching them as much as the rest of us do. I do like SG-1, but Mac was such a sweetie, and he got the girl more often than poor ol' Jack -- he only gets the aliens!

Dear Rick,

Hi. I just wanted to wish you a happy 52nd birthday and many, many more! I've been a fan of yours since my college days and you were on General Hospital. That's 25 years for cryin' out loud! You just keep getting better and better as the years go by. Also, I really admire the work you do for the environment. Thank you for all you have done to entertain us all and thank you for helping our world be a better place. May this year be your best ever in everything you do. May you have happiness and good health too. May God continue to bless you in all you do.

Your fan forever,

Mary

Have a great Birthday, from a long time fan. Sorry I never saw you on General Hospital. Never was much of a soap opera fan. I hope that when you are done with SG-1 that I will not have to settle on watching my tapes to see you.

Dear Mr. Anderson, how are you? I follow the series Stargate avidly. How's it going, your move to SciFi?

And I wish you all the best for your birthday.

Dear Mr. Anderson,

I have long been a fan of yours, and have admired your acting ability, charm, integrity, sense of humor, and love of animals. I have created a small GIF file of a few pictures that I spruced up for you celebrating that love of animals.

Picture 1 is you and Whiskey, 2 and 3 are the blind cheetah you were able to interact with after an interview, and 4 and 5 are my beloved cat, Spencer. (His full name is actually Spencer Bebop Furball Tracy!) He has been with me almost 16 years now, and knowing of the love you had for Whiskey I am sure you understand how I feel about my furry friend.

I also wanted to tell you that I have been pleasantly diverted from pain and illness often in my life due to your acting career. I love MacGyver and Stargate SG-1, and I even watch all the re-runs without complaint. I have been disabled and ill for many years now, and watching those shows has really made a difference many times in my life. Thank you for that.

I hope you have a very happy birthday, and that there will be many more to come. Enjoy that little girl of yours, and have a blessed life.

Yours Truly,

Ginny Pickard, age 33

Hello Richard!

Happy Birthday Richard!

I hope your birthday is very special, and that your every wish will come true!!!! Thanks, once again, for all of the wonderful hours of fun you have given me with your work.

Love,

Rick,

My 4-year-old daughter and I wish you a Very Happy Birthday!!! We are both fans of both MacGyver and Stargate SG-1. I have been a fan of yours since I was 16... and nothing's changed! You are my favorite person. I have matured with the positive messages and beliefs that you have exhibited in MacGyver; and feel that that show is one of the few positive shows on TV that my daughter watches. We both enjoy Stargate SG-1; and I am planning to attend the Gatecon this year. We are hoping to meet you, and my daughter's other favorite--Christopher Judge (Teal'c). Again, Happy Birthday!!!

Rhonda & Roxanna

Geez, it seems like yesterday I was 7 and falling asleep in front of the TV watching MacGyver. Not that I understand how anyone could fall asleep while watching that show, but I guess it has something to do with the fact that I've kinda turned out like you. It must be an Aquarian thing, huh? Considering I have a Carter to deal with too... (my boyfriend, and he drives me NUTS!!!)

Anyway, happy 52nd.... hope to see you more on TV...

Dear Richard Dean Anderson:

First of all I want to say Happy Birthday and I hope that it is a great one as you spend it among family and friends. I watched you for many years (seven to be exact) on the show MacGyver, and I have been following your acting ever since. After the show MacGyver ended (which was a sad day for me because I loved the show very much), I watched every TV movie that you were in and was more then excited when SG-1 came on the air. You are an amazing and very talented actor. I wish you all the best in the years to come as you step away to spend more time with your family. Once again have an awesome birthday.

Dear Mr. Anderson,

When I was a teenager, I fell in love with "MacGyver". Countless times I found "hope in mankind" because of him. And... so many times when I was suicidal you made the difference. ... Once I sent you a letter, and you responded by sending me a post card that you signed yourself... proving to me that you do care about people. ... I still have that card. Thank you very much for it!

Anyway... Now I enjoy watching "Colonel O'Neill" on Stargate SG-1. ... It took me a while to adjust to the fact that "MacGyver" is gone... but now... I see it "had to be".

I just wanted you to know that I think you are a wonderful actor... And from what I DO see from interviews and such, You are a special, and great Human being. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being you! Keep up the good work! Thank you for caring about the environment too!

Have a very Happy Birthday, and a truly amazing year!

Always in Peace, your friend if I could be,

Dear Richard,

I would like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you from Argentina. I will be 18 years old on the 22nd (yes, one day before yours!!!). I do really appreciate every series and movie you work in, but the first one I saw (and my favourite) since I was a little girl has been MacGyver. Actually, I could recently get some Mac episodes in its real language and with your own voice, which I liked much more!!

Going back to the topic of this message I wish you the best for this bithday and the years to come. I knew, not so long ago, you were skiing in Chile. Well it would be nice if you come to Argentina too (there are really good mountains in the south!).

Fine, now I will say FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS!! in my own language.

Best wishes,

Cintia Forciniti

Oh my God !!!
I have to read a lot !!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY / FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS !!!

Dear Richard,

When Kate told us about your birthday link, I decided to wait, looking for inspiration for a special, different message to you... I'm sorry. Weeks have passed and this isn't special, it is simple but sincere, from the depth of my heart.

I want to thank you on your birthday for the many hours of good entertainment you gave us and specially, for all you've taught us by your characters and life. Watching MacGyver, reading about you and your charity work, etc. it seems to me that you have a teacher in your heart. In Argentina, for people like you we have and expression: "sos un maestro de alma" that means you are a teacher from the depth of your soul.

I think that you want to teach that everybody can change our lives with our effort, trust in ourselves and to do anything to each other. It's similar to Scouts' spirit I learned when I was a Girl Scout!

I think "those broken arms" changed your life so much, you wished on an ice-hockey player career, however you got - I imagine - much more than to be a hockey player and we have had the opportunity to know a special person, that touched our lives. God has mysterious ways to do things!

Be Happy, enjoy your life close to Wylie, Apryl and Zoe.
My best wishes for many birthdays more!!!

Richard, jump to Argentina! We are not having a civil war, like the news says!!! There are rivers to explore and to do rafting! More, the "extreme sport" like dancing Tango! Do you want to try to dance the Tango? Our "crazy" political situation, does not disturb our democracy.

We are both dog lovers!
Click here to see what kind of "Aliens" are living in Argentina!

Hi Pratt!
We want you to come back!



HAPPY DAY RICK!
Do you still think dogs, we're your favourite people?

My name's Benji. Marcela doesn't like my name, but she saw me, alone (I was a homeless dog) with that name included so she accepted it. A kiss to Zoe (with much respect, of course!) God bless you! BENJI

PS: I hope you have received my packet and letter, months ago in June: magazines, the Argentine video, chocolates. My apologies for my English and forgive me -please- for this too long message.

A hug, love,

Benji and Marcela

Happy Birthday Rick

May your day be filled with as much joy as you've given us fans over the years!

You have a talent which is rare... no matter what sort of day I'm having your portrayal of Jack O'Neill or MacGyver etc can make me smile and films like Past The Bleachers can make me cry (and trust me getting a Brit emotional is not that easy *grin*)!!!!! And films like Beyond Betrayal can have me actually disliking a character you play... which speaks volumes in itself really!!

Anyway best wishes to you and I hope the future brings you all that you want and you find fulfillment in the important environmental issues which seem to be guiding you at the moment... Oh and good luck on what I'm sure will be a very cool season six of SG-1!!

Have a great day with your family and friends...

I just wanted to say that I hope you have a splendiferous birthday because you deserve it for working your butt off all year on SG1. I hope I speak for all your fans when I say we really DO appreciate it. Thank You! :)

We'll miss you and SG-1 after season 6 but I for one fully understand and support your decision to step down and spend more time with other projects in your life that you really can't afford to miss out on.

Happy Birthday Richard Dean.

Dear Rick

I'd just like to say have a very happy birthday.

I think you are a wonderful actor and you are gonna be sorely missed when you leave Stargate.

Personally I find it very hard to find you in anything else on UK television, I wish they would re-run MacGyver because that was what started it all for me in the first place, and at the time I didn't even know it!!!

Anyway, I hope you have a really wonderful day and when you do leave our screens I hope that you enjoy all the things that you will pursue.

Love to you and yours today and always

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICK!!!

Hi Rick. I would just like to say in as little as I can (or I would go on for ages) how much I admire you. I am a very big fan and you are definately my favourite actor. I first saw you on TV when my mum was watching a MacGyver movie. I was about 8 years old at the time and I can't really remember it much apart from my mum mentioning she was watching a sexy guy called MacGyver. (She was too busy drooling to find out your real name.) Since then I saw you on Stargate and thought 'I like him.' My mum didn't recognise you but then they showed the same MacGyver movie and I couldn't stop laughing when I found out you were the same person (and that you used to have blond, long hair.) Since then I have been an avid fan and have collected all the Stargate episodes.

My friends at school don't quite understand my fascination with you, but if they bothered to watch an episode of Stargate they might see things my way. Although when I showed my best friend a picture of you half naked holding baby Wylie she thought you were quite nice too... but refuses to watch Stargate for fear of being labeled a sci-fi geek.

Anyway enough babbling. You have made a great influence on my life and I admire all the things you do. Hope you have a great birthday and get all the things that you want.

Oh and here is the droolsome pic I was talking about!

All my love,
One of your biggest fans

Dear Richard, (feel a bit odd about writing your first name, but seeing as you don't like people calling you by your last name, I guess it'll do!)

Hope you have a fantastic birthday, chill out and be with family and friends!

I hope you come and play hockey in England one day, coz I'd sure like to see you play!

Hi Rick,

My name is Jade from England, I would just like to say Happy Birthday, I hope you have a wonderful and happy day.

Thank you for entertaining us on Stargate and your other projects, you are a great actor, I hope to see you in England sometime at a convention, we would love to see you over here.

P.S. I think it's sweet that you care about the world and that you are kind enough to give lots to charity and save the rivers, good luck and well done, Sweety.

Please e-mail me sometime if you ever get time. You are my favourite actor and not to mention the hottest.

Loads of love

Hi Rick,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!I hope you have a great day. I am 18 years old and although I haven't seen much of your work other than Stargate SG-1, I think you are an excellent actor and I am already proud to call myself a fan of yours, so I just want to wish you the best birthday ever and I hope that each one is bigger and better than the one before. You are one of the nicest guys in the world and you deserve that and so much more.

Take Care

Hi Mr. Anderson,

Wow! I have been one of your biggest fans since SG-1 started. I love your work. I am only 12 years old. I watch Stargate every night hoping to see you on every episode. My friends at school ignore me when I go on about you but I love to talk about you. I just hope that you have a wonderful birthday because you deserve it.

P.S. Please say hello to Amanda, Michael and Chris for me.

Happy 52nd Birthday Rick

Here's hoping you have a great one - you truly deserve it. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for being such a huge influence on so many lives, mine included. Because of you I now have a group of international pals who I can truly call "friends". Not only do we share the joy of following your career but we are also there for each other in whatever life brings our way and it's all due to you. So thanks Rick - you may not realise the extent to which you affect people's lives but we do.
