If you want to be reminded every 21 Dec, just use:
     FSET _since(yr) YEAR(TRIGDATE()) - yr
     REM 21 Dec MSG Joe's [ord(_since(1988))] birthday

As reminds manual states:

     The FROM clause operates almost like the counterpoint to UNTIL. It
     prevents the reminder from triggering before the FROM date.

Thus it makes no sense whatsoever to use FROM for a date in the past.
