True to the spirit of supply and demand (you demand and we supply ) please accept transatlantic felicitations on the anniversary of your "popping". 
So only 364 days 19 hours and change to the big three O !
It's all down hill from here

Happy Popping-day 
My piano teacher's name is Joe. The music director in a local theater production I was in's name is Joe. Hey! The main character's name in the show was Joseph (it's the one with the Technicolor coat, of no relation to TES). Does TES even make coats? Did they ever? ( 
) Anywho..
Happy Birthday. Have a great year.

Happy Birthday....29 was a great year for me....as my feeble mind remembers that point that past decades ago. Leo's have too much pride shoveling popcorn....go get a license from Kodak for recycling film....invent an adjustable head band to lock into the sprocket holes and start touring the world promoting film worn right

'sung like frank sinatra''when I was 29
it was a very good year
it was a very good year to drink a beer
and a gallon of wine,
I had plenty of time,
to string up my movies and whine..
it was a very good beer......
Happy birthday Joe, without your constant bitter rantings about everything, my life would be boring! You bring a constant smile to my face each and every day of my life. You are the .... ok thats enough.....

May you live one hundred years.

Joe..there is nothing funny about being 29.I can not make fun of people who have reached that "Grand Old Age." (GOA)So Joe, it's time for you to settle down, get married, have some kids.
We need to see some little 's out here to carry on your good name.
Here's to days gone bye, and to those that are to be.And here's to a very happy birthday - anniversary. That's a double yellow martini. Have a great day.
This is 's creed:
I love my Job, I love the Pay!
I love it more and more each day.
I love my Boss; he's the best!
I love his boss and all the rest.
I love my Office and its location -
I hate to have to go on vacation.
I love my furniture, drab and gray,
and the paper that piles up every day!
I love my chair in my padded cell!
There's nothing else I love so well.
I love to work among my peers -
I love their leers and jeers and sneers.
I love my computer and all its software;
I hug it often though it doesn't care...
I love each program and every file,
I try to understand once in a while!!
I'm happy to be here, I am I am;
I'm the happy slave of my Uncle Sam.
I love this Work: I love these Chores.
I love the meetings with deadly bores.
I love my Job - I'll say it again -
I even love these friendly Men -
The men who've come to visit today
In those lovely white coats

OH NO! Joe can replicate? This is an excellent reason to resume drinking! Happy birthday. Big 'dirty thirty' is coming faster than you think.
I'm still being 'dirty thirty' at 45!!

Happy Birthday, Joe!You ARE a classic...each and every post of yours simply cracks me up, and often hysterically.
I remember being 29 - that was 3 years ago...almost. (my birthday was on the 15th!).
Stay tight, yo.

Joe,Happy Birthday!
Just remember that no one over the age of 30 should have a job that requires him to wear a nametag.

...and happy birthday from another 29 year-old: in my case the event was on 18 June which, for history buffs among you (think 1814) might explain why I dislike the European Union so much!That having been said, Napoléon is still one of my favourite films...

Happy Birthday "Joe" (if that really IS your name).
Posted by Bobby Henderson (Member # 840) on 07-23-2002, 05:14 PM:
Happy Birthday, Joe. At least you're still in your twenties. I vaguely remember turning 29 back in 1996.
Posted by Ben Wales (Member # 92) on 07-23-2002, 05:27 PM:
Happy Birthday Joe!
Posted by Rachel Gilardi (Member # 4594) on 07-23-2002, 06:58 PM:
29!?!? HAHA Joe, you're old! I'm about to turn 22 Have a chipper birthday!!!
Posted by Thomas Procyk (Member # 1170) on 07-23-2002, 08:30 PM:
Joe's birthday?? I'm game...HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE!!!
I thought you were much younger than 29 though...
Now who's gonna come to Orlando for my 21st?? I think it's around the time of ShowEast. (February)

Happy birthday Joe
I gsther you discovered the fountain of youth is shovelling corn
All the best for many more
Posted by Manny Knowles (Member # 1171) on 07-24-2002, 01:22 AM:
Okay......Now we want the dish!
How'd you spend your birthday, Joe?
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 07-24-2002, 01:58 AM:
I spent my birthday at the fabulous Madstone Tamarac 6 movie theater complex fixing a bad xenon power supply, pasting back together a movie someone chopped up due to a brainwrap (using real Elmer's Glue!), and attempting to hunt down the cause of the Dolby CP50 which likes to switch into non-sync every 45 minutes, probably due to a faulty power supply.
Posted by Manny Knowles (Member # 1171) on 07-24-2002, 02:05 AM:
I thought you quit show business. No?Well, that's certainly a...um...productive way to spend a birthday...
Actually, I'd like to hear more about the Elmer's glue. How does that figure into that equation?
And what's up with the CP-50? I didn't know they could switch by themselves...Don't they have those big, ugly push-button switches?
Posted by Dwayne Caldwell (Member # 417) on 07-24-2002, 02:38 AM:
That's exactly what I did on my last birthday. You just couldn't share 28 with me, could you? You had to go and turn 29. Damn it! You do this every year! Anyway, Happy Birthday for yesterday, Joe. Hope you spend this year doing some real living before it's all over.

The man with the magic hands.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 07-24-2002, 03:24 AM:
Dwayne, you'll be 30 soon. I will be there to make sure you know it, too. If I can help it, you'll turn 30 before I do. I'll use magic if I have to. That's how I keep those ORC platters from throwing any prints!And Manny - The CP50 has buttons just like a CP65. Wake mode is set to Non-Sync and I think there might be tiny interruptions in the power supply. I almost care enough about it to fix it!

"And Manny - The CP50 has buttons just like a CP65. Wake mode is set to Non-Sync and I think there might be tiny interruptions in the power supply. I almost care enough about it to fix it!"Set it to wake in whatever format the feature plays in, then fix it right if you start to care enough.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 07-24-2002, 04:16 AM:
I thought about that. But I soon got tired from thinking and went to sleep.
Posted by Bob Maar (Member # 763) on 07-24-2002, 06:53 AM:
Joe your birthday is over, you are 29 now and you have to deal with the fact that you live in Colorado. I think the girl of your dreams most likely lives in Pittsburgh. So as the song goes..."Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile,smile, smile." Enjoy your move and let us all know when you get settled in.
Posted by Sam Hunter (Member # 1119) on 07-24-2002, 08:43 AM:
Happy Belated Birthday Joe!Enjoy your 29th year of life, it will give you something nice to reflect on when you get past the 40 year mark.
Posted by Paul Konen (Member # 41) on 07-24-2002, 09:01 AM:
Happy belated Birthday Joe.
Posted by Adam Martin (Member # 641) on 07-24-2002, 11:37 AM:
Just to make Joe feel older, I'll point out that he's already enjoyed his 29th year of life and is now enjoying his 30th. 
Posted by Kara J. McVay (Member # 1285) on 07-24-2002, 12:19 PM:
Happy belated birthday Joe!!!Did that theater use the Elmers glue just for you on your special day? That was so thoughtful of them

Uuummmmm! Must bust out the Ebonics to English translator on that one. Try this on for size: Check it bleed Bro was on...didn't trip, but the folks at Madstone was fleetkitten. But Bro hammered out a jam chip, tightened that sucka on a platta like a motha.......Shiiiitttttt.TRANSLATION: Say Fellow Film-techers, Joe was cool did not panic. But the bosses at Madstone were freaking out big time. But Joe pulled it togther, kept the movies on the platters like a big pro. Golly!
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 07-24-2002, 01:34 PM:
Ethan, you're way too phiggidy.
Posted by Per Hauberg (Member # 529) on 07-24-2002, 06:43 PM:
Someone please translate - and sing:I gaar var det Joe's fødselsdag; Hurra, hurra, hurra
Han sikkert sig en gave fik, som det nu er så smuk en skik
Med dejlig chokolade og kager til...
For han er een af vor' egne, -for han er een af vor' egne
For han er een af vor' egne, -en rigtig haengeroev !
TILLYKKE MED FOEDSELSDAGEN, JOE REDIFER
I still remember my 29 years birthday party at the kindergarten.
Believe it or not: In those days, we were using DP70 !!
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 07-24-2002, 08:18 PM:
Thanks to everybody for the cool birthday wishes. The foreign language ones were cool. Especially Ethan's. Man, if forum member Jeremy Spracklen had never coined and popularized the word "phiggidy" the world just wouldn't be any fun.
Posted by Thomas Procyk (Member # 1170) on 02-05-2004, 11:07 AM:
WAIT!!! Why does JOE REDIFER get TWO birthday threads?!?!?!
And how could he be 29 in 2002 and 39 in 2003?!?!
BECAUSE HE >>IS<< BRAD MILLER! THATS HOW!!!
Anyways, happy 22 to me... for real.
