Sixty-nine and counting

Today is my dad’s 69th birthday. Meet Joe Coppolino with his wife Yael and the model beagle. He’s an Aquarius, Aquarius Moon, Aquarius Mercury. Libra rising. Can you say air sign? He has taught communications and media for most of his career and has served as a power industry consultant, as well as trainer to many, many New York City cops seeking promotion to sergeant, lieutenant and captain. If there was anyone in my life whose message was, BECOME THE MEDIA, it was him. Happy birthday, dad! If you want to send him a birthday message, you write it here or you can use this mail link.

  1. Happy Birthday to you, Joe … and many more.

    (My Dad’s an Aquarius, too. This also reminds me that someone important to me – now deceased – was born on January 28 a couple of years after you. Peace and namaste to you all.)

  2. Many happy returns Joe. My b-day was on Tuesday the 26th. With no less than 4 planets in Aquarius (in my 6th house), my birthday is 1-26-62 and I know what it’s like being one of the tribe…

  3. Happy Birthday Joe!! And go Aqueeerians or Aaaacurious or Aquaribusses (I love all of our names)!! (I’m Aquarius Moon, Aquarius Rising)

  4. Happy Birthday Joe!

    Not sure if you remember me, but we have met a few times now. The first time being in High Falls NY in 2005, I think. And then a few times after in kingston where I cooked dinner for us and we indulged in some good conversation, and I got to meet Yael too!

    Anywho, after the first time we met, I took your picture. The last thing you said was “Have fun kids!” (I remember this because the Gorilla that appears in my ongoing Gorilla series of dreams — which has turned out to be a significant dream series in my world, said this to me the night before you said it in real life). It freaked me out a bit, but only in a reassuring way.

    We did have fun. So I wish the same to you and Yael today, with many more to come!

    Love,
    Beth

  5. A happy birthday Joe!

    A happy birthday to Fe too…xx

    It’s my beloved’s birthday tomorrow, so here’s to you honey.

    And to any other wonderfully Acurious Aqueerious Aquarians.

  6. Eirc,
    The mail like you provided did not work on this end (some sort of “command line” error), so please pass on my congratulations and best wishes for Joe’s birthday (from yet another Aquarian). Thank you.
