Background information: I have known Joe Redifer for the past 6 years.
Sudden Realization:
Damn! Joe Redifer has an ugly nose! 
Posted by Jerry Chase (Member # 660) on 04-19-2001, 01:06 AM:
Hey! That nose is nice and pink and clear. Its the rest of the face that is is green and fuzzy. Clearly the nose was photographed in 65mm and the rest of the face in digital.

I don't even remember when this picture was taken. It was with Brad's old Fuji digital camera, which explains the crappy color. Brad says I was messin' around with it in the booth one day. I'll take his word for it. I think the picture is kind of funny, though it doesn't exactly look like me! Well, maybe a little. But not too much if this is the first time Ian has noticed my nose. I assume it doesn't normally look like that or else he would have said something the first day I met him, knowing Ian. I have a much cooler picture coming very soon, but it, too, will be temporary as I like my original pointing picture the best.

For the archives, I am now going to post the picture currently being discussed, as Joe is sending me a replacement picture. 
That picture was taken the first day I had my Fuji camera. I didn't know how to set the controls and was messing around with the manual functions, which explains when Joe started to play with it why the settings were so out of whack. The original picture was incredibly blurry, but PhotoShop did a decent job of sharpening it up and correcting "some" of the color, but those flourescent lights still make him look green. When he took it I have no idea, but that evening as I was downloading the pictures I shot that day there it was in all of it's gory glory.
That picture sure does make your nose look weird though, Joe. I've never noticed it before, so I would have to assume that it was the extreme closeup coupled with the odd angle.
And of course, here is Joe's classic "I want YOU" recruiting pic.

"Joe" is it true that you once sneezed in Denver and wound up in Miami? With a nose like that it is no wonder Dwayne and Brad went to live in Texas.Have you considered surgery? I am pretty good with a knife. I could help you.
I am so happy you have deceided to take Paul's advice and give us the finger again.
Just be sure to keep the finger away from your nose.

Bob Maar said...."Just be sure to keep the finger away from your nose."

My nose really is no bigger than anyone elses. The closeup picture just has an odd angle. Makes sense.
Posted by John Walsh (Member # 168) on 04-19-2001, 12:28 PM:
Oh, I didn't know Joe was saying; "I want YOU!" It looks more like; "I'm gonna get YOU!"
Posted by Bob Maar (Member # 763) on 04-19-2001, 12:38 PM:
Yes, He is going to get you with his nose.Next Day Headline:
"Joe Blows Nose, Denver leveled"
Hundreds Die as Nose Grows and devistates
entire population of Colorado.
Joe is remorsefull, locks himself in Booth
and drinks "Film Guard"
Anyone have an antidote?

The worst is yet to come. I may succeed in taking a picture of myself to accompany my filmtech posts. However, to date, we have seven digital cameras here which don't work any more.

Joe's nose is big because air is free.This site could not stand the "real me." The servers would shut down, not to mention most of the internet.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 04-19-2001, 03:51 PM:
OK ENOUGH! It was funny at first, but now is starting to become insulting. Let's drop it. Thanks.
Posted by Mark Gulbrandsen (Member # 72) on 04-19-2001, 04:12 PM:
Ok guys,
Joe now wants us to drop his nose......who's closest to Denver??? If we drop it it might get longer, become skinnier, or turn into some other shape. Didn't someone's nose get run over by a steam roller in a Mel Brooks movie once?? Stay away from road construction around Denver Joe.....

Actually, I like Joe's new picture, which emphasises the nose and the fingers sticking out of the edge. It reminds us that all images don't have to appear as dull old rectangles.------------------

Remember Lee Marvin in "Cat Ballou" Maybe we should give him "Joe's Nose" What do you think?
Posted by Randy Stankey (Member # 64) on 04-20-2001, 12:25 AM:
I have had a couple of 35mm SLR camras over the years. When I first got them I can remember taking a picture of my own nose accidentally as I was looking at it making some adjustment, etc.You can't help but laugh when you realize that you just took a picture of your nose. Especially if there are other people around. Then there is the inevitable series of jokes about developing the pictures, etc.
As I remember one of the shots wasn't half bad, actually. 
Posted by Rachel Carter (Member # 693) on 04-21-2001, 01:58 AM:
Ok guys, leave Joe alone! You never EVER pick on a persons nose!!! (No pun intended)
Posted by Paul G. Thompson (Member # 655) on 04-21-2001, 02:08 AM:
HAH! Check out that schnozola of Randy's mugshot!. 
Sorry, Randy........

Man this is one tough Crowd. Good thing Joe Namath is not in this forum he had a Huge Nose. It was so big he could sell shade with it.
Posted by Randy Stankey (Member # 64) on 04-21-2001, 01:43 PM:
At least I don't have a tiny, little button nose! Wanna talk about people with noses?

And of course, how could we forget Groucho Marx!

Randy you forgot the Num,ber One Nose belongs to: Joseph 
Redifer.
Posted by Rachel Carter (Member # 693) on 04-22-2001, 01:03 AM:
You people suck!! I have the #1 nose, its very unique!!! Too bad you can't tell from my pic 
but its crooked....my damn doctor!!!Hey Joe, maybe they will leave you alone now!
Posted by Rick Long (Member # 213) on 04-22-2001, 01:38 AM:
I seem to remember that Joe did a great job on a "digital beard" some time back. It is indeed a shame that even modern digital technology can't help that nose.
Posted by Phil Hill (Member # 371) on 04-22-2001, 01:57 AM:
You's R all off track! It's the size of the foot that's the important thing, not the nose.
Posted by Bob Maar (Member # 763) on 04-22-2001, 08:36 AM:
Phil, Did you say "foot?"Hold on,I have to go back and look.
You did say, foot.
So "Foot" it is. However I never knew a foot was only six inches.

Hey !Nice new picture! Now that you have a new picture, no one will recognize the icon, so I'll probably have to make a new one. Of course, the old icon will still work for anyone who wants to use it (and who doesn't?)
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 04-24-2001, 02:54 AM:
Here's your new icon, Ian!!! 
Posted by Scott Norwood (Member # 30) on 04-24-2001, 08:29 PM:
So is someone going to make a "Joe Redifer's Nose" icon? Surely we need one of those.
Posted by Evans A Criswell (Member # 381) on 04-24-2001, 11:34 PM:
I could, but I won't. I figured creating a special 
icon was enough to get me into mildly hot water. The lasso tool in Photoshop made it really easy.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 04-25-2001, 03:16 AM:
Whatever do you mean by getting into mildly hot waters, 
?
Posted by Evans A Criswell (Member # 381) on 04-25-2001, 01:47 PM:
That icon you created of me looks really wicked, Joe. 
The hair on one side is pretty strange looking, but if it were on both sides, I guess the icon would look like a head with wings.
Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 04-26-2001, 03:34 AM:
This has got to be the strangest damn thread I have ever read...Sort of like watching old episodes of Monty Python's Flying Cir-CUSS!

Posted by Paul G. Thompson (Member # 655) on 04-26-2001, 04:40 AM:
Joe, you look like a Star Trekkie standing in front of a Christieshitty..Heavens to Hemorrhoids....er...Heavens to Mergatriods...
Posted by Bob Maar (Member # 763) on 04-26-2001, 07:19 AM:
This thread is no longer on "Joe's nose:. You realize that Joe is trying to replace his nose with Evans head. Evans head is only 1/1000th the size of "Joe's Nose". When Joe was born his Mom wanted to name him "Nose" but his Dad wanted a Junior. Dad won and they named him "Joe". His Mom "nose" the truth. Joe became famous for the saying, which, incedentally he uses after every talk he gives, including casual conversations is: "My Mother, Thanks you"
"My Father, Thanks you"
"My Sister, Thanks you"
and ladies and gentleman
"My Nose, Thanks you."
Posted by Evans A Criswell (Member # 381) on 04-26-2001, 09:30 AM:
All someone needs to do now is animate the hair flapping like wings or something. I thought about "The Young Ones" more than "Monty Python", but now that I think of it, the styles of animation used on those shows (I have the whole series on DVD) would be pretty easy to do with animated GIFs or flash. What would we call the place then, "Brad Miller's Flying Circus"?

did you know that your (or Joe's) nostril should be no bigger than your pinkey?

Take heart Joe. I too have a big schnoz. You know what they say,"the bigger the nose, the bigger the........." ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
My brother has razzed me about it my whole life. I use to want to get a nose job, but then decided why let society make me change my body? I am proud of my schnoz. I could think of much worse things to have. ![[thumbsup]](graemlins/thumbsup.gif)

If I have a big nose, show me a picture of a normal nose. I expect to see a picture of Micheal Jackson or something.
Posted by Mike Blakesley (Member # 26) on 10-25-2005, 11:53 AM:
I heard somewhere that the nose is the only part of the human body that never stops growing (other than hair, nails, etc). That's why old guys have huge noses.
Posted by Bob Maar (Member # 763) on 10-25-2005, 02:54 PM:
It's time we stopped picking Joe's nose. I mean on Joe's nose.
