Jason, wow 50! You're young at heart and I'm honored to call you a friend. I've learned so much from you over the years. From being my travel guide for my "honeymoon" in Asia to teaching me about retail and also good food. I'm now hooked on ramen because of you. Cheers to you my friend and hop

Your friendship means the world to us!

Hey, J. Happy 50th!!! Who would have thought when we were kids meeting for the first time that we'd still be so close. Over the years, we've gone through the ups and downs of middle and high school. I spent so much time at your parent's house that your family felt like a second family, which still f

Jason! Happy 50th (FIFTY!) birthday to one of the greatest out there! We are eternally blessed to be able to call you and Helena friends. You have the excitement and joy of a man in their early 20s but the wisdom of a man many years your senior. You've crossed a big milestone here -- we will have t

Relative to our advanced ages, I have only known you a short amount of time. But in that time, I've been fortunate to get to know you, learn from you, and experience your curious mind and giant heart. While most of our time together has been focused on work, my favorite conversations with you have b

Happy 50th, Jason! I think you may be the friend I’ve known the longest 😊. Many happy returns of the day and wishing you (at least) another 50 years of happiness, good health, and prosperity 🎉🎉🎉 Love, Mei, Stephen, Estella, Benedetta & Leonardo

From Gap Club, Car Club, Bro Club, Figure shit out Club, Uncle Club and now the 50 Club!!! Always together, always there and always will be!  Happy 50th!!!

Happy 50th!!! Can not believe how time flies! I am glad we met and became friends 20+ years ago and will always cherish all our road trips :) To many more ahead hopefully!!!

Enjoy the day and I will celebrate by having some fancy wine in your honor! IMG_3653.MOV

Happy 20th anniversary of your 30th birthday! Has it really been this long . . . you're the youngest 50 year old we know. Hope you celebrate your special day well, and may your next half century be a good one! (This was the best picture we could get with baby Jennifer looking at the camera.)

Congratulations on making it to a half century! I heard the second half is alway the best half. Dinner on me, cilantro omakase experience! Hahah

Of all the photos I've taken on all of our business trips, only 1 actually has us and the team in it. The vast majority are photos of the food we've eaten, so I've included some of my favorites. From Vegas to San Antonio and even Austin and Niceville, I'm always happy to have a friend to find good f

Happy Birthday Jay! You’re an amazing person and an even more amazing friend. I’m so glad a few beers after work turned into such a great friendship. Happy big 5-0 big guy!

Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, Jason!

wow we both gained a lot of weight since then

Your Sydney family wishes you an awesome 50th birthday celebration... I have many fond memories from our DTLV, AFWERX, SPACEWERX time in Vegas plus all the hikes and help from you supporting me and the kids through our transition back to Sydney from Vegas. Not to mention the three dogs miss yo

Happy Fiftieth, Jason! We gotta get back to Tahiti sometime!

Here’s to many more food and dessert adventures all around the world!

Spill the tea 😁

If Jason was a Superhero* his evil nemesis would be the “Green Lantern”. Sorry, I meant green onions, parsley 🌿, and cilantro. Clearly, at some point as a child,  he was left in the produce section and caught a bit of overspray by the (evil!) green grocer.  You know, when they spray the vegetables

The prototype that was going was going to make us millions!

Happy Birthday OLD friend! I can say that because 1). I am older than you and 2). I’ve know you for half of your life. You’ve been a true friend over the years. From working at Banana Republic to taking vacations together in Kauai. I love how you embrace life, especially with Helena by your

Technically your parents and Femmie and I are cousins, but we all are in the same age group! It has been close to 40 years when you and your parents first moved into our house temporarily while relocating and getting set up in the Bay Area, and it's been amazing to be able to keep in touch when we

After first meeting in Greenwich Village, NYC, I didn’t suspect that we would later become roommates in Glen Park, SF. What a friendship we have forged since then. Here we are celebrating your 50th birthday! And, I am so glad we are still in each other’s lives. Thank you for teaching me the cooki

Happy Birthday Jason! Thank you for being a good manager/a mentor/ a good friend and the most important is a food buddy! Believe it or not, I still can't find another durian buddy yet. So let's meet up some time and eat durian together. Btw, 5-0 is just a number and your young heart always stay at 2

To the best big brother, thank you for being my first friend in life and always watching over me! Your love for fast cars terrifies me, but I've always been happy to accept your hand-me-downs! May your days ahead be filled with adventure, joy, supportive friends, great meals and good health. Drive

Hope you have the best day ever! Cheers to have another great year full of beautiful moments (like this majestic lakeside one in Bozeman). OG pod reunion zoom soon please?!

Jason! You are such a pleasure to work with and just be around. Come to Minnesota again and I'll show you all the best places to eat in Saint Paul. I hope you have the best time celebrating your birthday. And, for the record, I thought you were like 41 tops. Cheers and hip hip hooray!
