Happy Joe's
I read today in the Post Bulletin’s blog that a Happy Joe’s is coming to Rochester before the end of the year, and I was really excited to hear that news. I have always thought that a Happy Joe’s would do well in Rochester. It had been an idea of mine to open one up here someday, but it takes considerable money to do that…money that I don’t have. So, now I’ll just have to make sure they stick around here by giving them my business.

Happy Joe's is, bar none, the best pizza on earth. I love Georgia but I miss Happy Joe's here. Amazing, the way these little websites allow to you find people from the old days... gald things are going well with you!
One thing they don't tell you about Chicago-style pizza before you move to the area is that the vast majority of it is god-awful. You can't swing a dead cat around here without hitting a pizza place, but we usually just end up going with Pizza Hut or even Papa John's because they all suck. A Happy Joe's in the suburbs would make a killing.
I miss that place too. Delicious. Hopefully your new one will be complete with the window to watch the pizza maker which gave me hours of entertainment as a child.
...and don't forget the siren that goes off during your birthday party!
When I worked at Happy Joe's, my favorite thing to do was to run the siren. I would keep it on a lot longer than I was supposed to. Kids thought it was funny, but I think I annoyed the adults.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please. We have a very special birthday today at Happy Joe's, it's for _____ and he is ___. Please join me in singing him Happy Birthday!"
Happy Joe's is a great place with great memories for people who grew up in Iowa.
