[> Jamie's birthday in FC where he reflects that 50 is a birthday his father never saw.... then follows up with this: "And as for taking stock," he added practically, "I've all my teeth, none of my parts are missing, and my cock still stands up by itself in the morning. It could be worse." Always so practical!! -- MaryC in KY, 14:46:04 06/16/11 Thu

[> I liked the part when Jemmy had lice and they cut his hair off then Roger (a) realized that Jemmy had the exact same birthmark in the exact same place as he and (b) offered to have all his hair cut off as well. -- LadyDuBois, 15:05:32 06/16/11 Thu

[> In DOA when Bree is in labor with Jem - Claire makes some comparison to baseball and labor and Bree says there are no hotdogs and beer during childbirth. Jamie offers immediately to get her ale and a hot dog, though he clearly has no idea what a hot dog is. -- Lady Stormwing, 20:48:49 06/16/11 Thu

[> When Claire finds out that Jamie visited Faith's grave also in Voyager. That one always gets me. -- Stephanie M, 21:45:55 06/16/11 Thu

[> Actually two come to mind, but they are really the same. The first is when Jamie gives his unborn child to Frank, the second when he give William to John. Such heartbreak. And such a great, strong man to give up his most precious child(ren) to someone he knows can take better care of them. Not to mention the trust Jamie is placing in two men he has reason to mistrust a great deal. -- jayn, 03:20:27 06/17/11 Fri

[> I'll have to say when Jaime baptised William and gave him his stinking Papist name and gives him his rosary and when William wants to give him something to remember him by, Jamie says he didn't need anything to remember. Broke my heart for Jamie to feel the loss of another child. -- LadyGrace, 10:50:36 06/17/11 Fri

[> That's my favorite one too. -- Janet H., 17:22:05 06/17/11 Fri

[> Any one with Jamie is great. *G* I'm waiting for a FUTURE one - when he and Willie have a "reckoning" and Willie remembers him being the Papist etc. etc. Man, that's going to be a tear jerker!!!!! :D -- Judie, 08:38:57 06/18/11 Sat

[> I do not remember in which book it was, but when Ian Sr. wrote to Jamie to keep Ian Jr. for a while with him, as times were difficult for young men in Scotland. Ian Sr. had not seen his son for so long time but despite that, he was prepared to "keep him away" just to keep him safe. -- Margt, 12:51:17 06/25/11 Sat
