Dear Barry Williams, aka Greg Brady, aka Johnny Bravo:

Shocking to think that you're 59 today!  And just to help you celebrate... 

"F-F F-I-L L-L L-M-O O-O O-R-E Fillmore Junior High!

F-F F-I-L L-L L-M-O O-O O-R-E Fillmore Junior High! (repeat 10 more times)

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. And every time I drive through Fillmore, UT, I still shout out that cheer in your honor!

You're the grooviest!

Happy 54th Jason Alexander!

"I'm disturbed, I'm depressed, I'm inadequate, I've got it all!"

--George Costanza

Happy 54th Birthday Jason Alexander!  What?!  Your real name is Jason Greenspan?  I thought it was Art Vandalay...Or George Cantstandya...Biff Loman?

Thank you for the character George Costanza, which I enjoyed from 1989-1998 and will continue to enjoy forever and ever! Yada, yada, yada...

Regards, Mrs Love

Happy 40th James Marsden

Dear James Marsden,

Happy 40th Birthday today. Considering you got your start on "Saved By The Bell: The New Class," I'd say you've done pretty well for yourself. And you're still easy on the eyes. 

And speaking of eyes, watching the X-Men movies, I kept saying to my kids: "Is that guy ever going to take off those weird sunglasses?" Sorry, Mr. Cyclops, I was never much of a comic book fan. 

And for the record, James, in The Notebook, I would've picked you over Noah (aka Ryan Gossling) any day!

Regards, Mrs Love 

Happy 40th Birthday Andrew Lincoln!

Dear Andrew Lincoln,

Happy 40th Birthday to you today!

I want you to know that because of your scene in the film "Love Actually," every Christmas I open my front door hoping you'll be standing there on my doorstep with your cue cards. Will you be here this year? I'll be anxiously waiting.

Regards, Mrs Love

Happy 77th Birthday Robert Redford

Mr. Redford, 

I've known since I was 13 years old when I first saw you in "Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid" that I would be your devoted fan for my entire life! Even the day I saw you at the Sundance Ski Resort during my college years didn't change anything. Being the serious college student that I was, I took ski classes in the morning and in the afternoon...so chances that I see you would be much greater. And on the day I saw you in the resort, I was quite surprised at how short and thin you were. However, I can assure you that didn't change anything! 

On the day I got married to my husband in 1983, a friend of mine saw my husband and said: "I see you married your Robert Redford!"...yep, I was always partial to blondes with blue eyes, just like you. I'm forever your fan...even now that you're old and quite wrinkled. (hey, but who isn't!) 

A friend of mine saw you once recently and noticed how much your face has aged, and said: "He looks like he's had a happy life...You can tell he's done a lot of smiling." I hope that's what people will say about me.

Happy 77th Birthday! I'm sure you agree! I look better in this photo than Barbra Streisand did!

Regards, Mrs Love 

Happy 68th Birthday Steve Martin!

"I wanted to expand my life in the way Leonardo da Vinci did. And that's why I took up juggling.

I know what you're saying you're saying: Steve, where do YOU find time to juggle?

Well, I juggle in my mind.

...whoops!" --SteveMartin

Dear Steve,

Hoping you found time to juggle on your 68th birthday yesterday!  I wish I'd known you when you lived in Garden Grove. I know we would've been great friends...if I'd been born. From one Orange County-an to another...

Regards, Mrs Love

PS. Happy to report I've read ShopGirl 100 times...and counting! 

Happy 69th Birthday Sam Elliott!

Dear Sam Elliott, 

Have you ever fallen in love with a voice? And every time you hear that voice your heart skips a beat? <sigh> Probably not.  Well I have. I fell in love with your voice (and your moustache too!) in 1976 when I saw you in Lifeguard. <swoon>

Today you are 69 and your voice still makes me swoon!

I think tonight calls for a Sam Elliott movie marathon! Conagher, Tombstone, Gettysburg, Mask...just to name a few. 

And quite honestly, your voice makes me want to go out and buy a Dodge Ram and I would, except for the fact that my husband works for Ford! Sorry Sam, if I bought I Dodge, my husband might leave me. :(

Happy 69th Birthday!

Regards, Mrs Love
