So many gekkos to charm, so little time... Thanks for the inspiration!

Happy birthday - may not all your wishes come true at once, so there will always be something left to look forward to!

I hope the enjoyment my family and I have gotten from watching your work together is returned to you tenfold this coming year! Many Happy Returns of the Day!

Happy Birthday Richard!! My parents introduced me to MacGyver when I was about 6 and up until the cancellation of the show, I'd HAVE to be home to watch it. I loved that show. LOL. Anyway, my new thing is SG-1. You are a talented actor and I really hope that you have the best birthday. Spend it with family, because that's what's important. Thanks for taking the time to read this!

Lots of Love from Alabama,

I wish you a happy birthday and a successful life, and be proud of your daughter because she is an angel!

Dear Richard,

Hi Richard!

Well I guess I'm number 371 in this guestbook. So if you really have read them all I hope you can still read these two words without getting or !

I wish you can enjoy this day with Wylie again! Have fun!

What else could I write what's not written already? I am happy that you believe in God, Thomasina Gibson told me that when she guide me through the Bridge Studios. I hope you don't mind for asking her. I like the way you care about peace, our nature, kids, and people with special needs. It's great that you are in the situation that many people will listen to you. And I am very keen on "Legend". I think you put much from your heart inside.

I would not say I am fan because you are more a big paragon sometimes even surrogate father to me since I was 13. From that moment when Mac said "Lord give me the strength to deal with what I can and endure what I can't. Well I'm enduring," I was deeply impressed. Of course I know Mac is not you but, it was the first time I hear an actor saying such things in a TV-show. I believe in God since I was Wylie's age. This, the wish to meet you and the way how you played a nice guy who likes kids, outsiders, disabled people..., helped me to handle my spastic diplegia, and the death of my Mum and Dad when I was 9 and 10. Because of you I "survived" the terrible boarding school which I must attend after my parents died. Thanks!

I still miss them very much. Especially at Christmastime and in January because my birthday is on 20th. And sometimes it's hard to stand on my own wheels with no one behind me. But then I look down on my wheelchair which is signed by Christopher Judge, Don Davis, Peter Williams, and many more of the show and I ask God for the 1000th time, if he could help me to meet you in person. (There is more than enough space for a signature.) And the hope that my wish will come true, keeps me rollin'. Maybe you could help him. Enjoy every day with your family. God bless you and those whom you love.

Hi Richard!!

I wanted to drop you a line to say Happy 53rd Birthday. I love your sci-fi, Stargate SG-1. I can't believe there are finally all new episodes!! I think you are the greatest actor on the planet!!! Keep up the great work, my friends and I adore you!!! I really hope you have a great birthday. God bless you!

Your biggest fan, (I'm 15, my birthday's in January, too),

Hi,

I just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday. I'm a big fan of you, mostly because of your character MacGyver. Hope you and your family are all doing well.

Dearest Rick,

I wish you a very happy birthday and a wonderful year 2003. Thanks for being the person you are. I like your mischievous smile, your warm dark eyes and your great sense of humor. I bet that you've never imagined the impact you would have on people when you started your acting career!!! I was very touched by your farewell and thanks to your audience at the end of MacGyver's last episode some 10 years ago. I reckon it's the very first time I've seen an actor doing this on TV. Since than, you have created another character that has become very popular too, but, even if O'Neill's adventures are very imaginative and sometimes completely unbelievable in my opinion, I rather prefer MacGyver's creativity and warmness, so I'm sure that MacGyver will live on forever in your fans' hearts and minds!

When I was in Vancouver (some 10 years ago) I've sent Belgian chocolates to the Bridge Studio for Mr Dana Elcar and a T-shirt for you with some sentences (in French) from Chief Seattle's reply to the president of USA (I bet you know this wonderful text explaining to the great white man in Washington that the Indians' way of life was completely different from the white's. It was a great lesson in nature's respect given to the white people some hundred years ago!) Well, I never got a reply... I just hope that you both received your presents and that the chocolates were not dropped in a rubbish bin or ended in some other guy's stomach! Well, anyway, I'm sure that, with Kate's help, you'll get my message this time and this makes me happy. You know, she's done a wonderful job in putting your great website on line, maintaining it and enriching it every other week. She deserves a big thank you from us (your fans) and I'm sure you have had the opportunity to thank her for that too!

Dearest Rick, big kisses and lots of love from Belgium! Keep on entertaining us as well as travelling the world for your own enjoyment and personal interests. Take good care of yourself and your family. You've got such a lovely little daughter and I understand why you are so proud of her!

Love,

Happy Birthday,

Stargate SG-1 is my favourite TV programme, which is vastly contributed to by your humour in it. Can't wait to see you and Michael (Shanks) together again.

Pity we don't get MacGyver in England.

Hi!

Have a great birthday! I wish you all the best for the upcoming year! Stay the personality you are, because from all I have heard, it's a great personality. Thanks for all the work for the ecology of this planet and the work with kids. And thanks for so many years of great TV shows. Always enjoyed your work (even when it scared the *** out of me).

Steffi

I've only come to know your work in the last couple of years through Stargate, but I am now busy discovering MacGyver (another great show).

Thank you for agreeing to do Season Seven of Stargate. So glad you're not retiring yet, and we can look forward to more episodes - by the way great work from you and Tom McBeath in 'Paradise Lost', which I have just seen.

I hope all the forthcoming river expeditions go well. As spotted in someone else's message, it would be a lovely idea for a book of photos, or videos of these journeys to appear one day. It's great you are an active supporter of preserving our environment.

Have a very enjoyable day, and I hope the knees are holding up during the skiing season!

Here's to future adventures both on and off the screen.

Cheers and Happy Birthday!

Anne

Thank you for caring about more than just what's directly in front of you! The environment and animal world is truly a better place for having you in it!

Thank you for committing to a season seven of Stargate SG-1 despite all the other important things in your life!

Lastly, thank you for just being you and for never failing to make me smile with that wicked and totally unique sense of humour!

Have a wonderful birthday Rick... may all your dreams come true!

Best wishes...

Hi Richard!!!!

I am wishing you everything that you wish for on your birthday. Have a happy day with your daughter.

I have been a fan of yours for a long time. So thank you for all those years of superb acting and entertainment. Keep up good work.

Happy Birthday Rick!!

I don't know how to thank you enough for everything you've done. You've always been and probably will always be my role model. Someone to look up to, and I was always trying to give everything just to be, to a small extent, like you.

I've had lots of problems in my youth, I've been quite a bit overweight and very shy. I always admired your love of sports, so I took up going to the gym every other day. I'm watching what I eat and took a few courses on self confidence. I lost around 25 kilos and I'm so much more comfortable. About two years ago I met someone special and for the first time in years I didn't feel like he wouldn't be intersted in me anyway. He's now my fiancee and I've never been more happy in my entire life.

I owe you a lot and what better way than to thank you through this message. Of course I realise that in fact you didn't do anything to me directly, but you always gave me the confidence that I can change my life if I really want to. Thank you so much with all my heart. Don't change a bit, you affected my life so much!!

Hey Rick!

Hope you have a nice birthday, go skiing! Anyway, thank you for well... everything. Through you (and the Internet) I've been able to make great new friends. I can probably never fully repay you for that but I tried to think of something original. So I named a blacktip shark after you. (I currently work at a Dutch zoo, doing shark research). Hope that will make you smile.

Hello Richard,

I just want to say happy birthday. I hope it is a good one and you spend it with your daughter, friends, and other love ones.

I think you're a wonderful person and great actor. I love the TV show Stargate SG-1 the same as I love the TV show MacGyver.

By the way, I even buy the TV show MacGyver on tape so I can still watch it.

Love your biggest fan since 1990,

Dear Richard,

My message will be short, because I'm only 10 years old and my English is not perfect... I wish you a happy birthday and a lot of happiness for you and your family.

I'd like to wish you a wonderful birthday and very many more, each one better than the last. It's wonderful to see you on our screens and to give us so much enjoyment with a character you have truly made all your own - of course we mean the one and only Jack O'Neill.

Happy Birthday, Rick!

Much love,

I really want for you to have an extraordinary birthday, surrounded by your family and the people you love most!!!

And by the way thanks for the seventh season of Stargate SG-1. I know you had other plans with your life... and as one of the biggest fans of the show in my country (I am almost certain I am the biggest ) I really appreciate it... Thank you very much. And I love your work on the series... Jack is my favorite character!!!

Hello and Happy Birthday to you!!!

I hope you have a great time on this day with laughter, joy, and many presents.

Thank you for another year of the great Jack O'Neill and Stargate on its 7th season. Thank you a lot!

You are the reason why I like (among many things) dogs, Simpsons, hockey... but most of all because we share the passion of acting. I would love to become one someday, like you.

Have a great year of 2003 with love and long/good health, but also with the knowledge, that somewhere on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, there's somebody who will always remember and recognize you, not only for what you did, but especially for what you are: a wonderful man.

You make me think to myself "What a wonderful world!"

Wishing peace, love and happiness to you and your sweet daughter!

Hope to see ya next year!
