Birthday shoutouts go to River Viiperi (above), who is 24, Cole and Dylan Sprouse are 23, James Tupper is 50, Billy Bob Thornton is 60, and President Barack Obama is 54.

Well, today was ... interesting.

Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser is the most viewed Crackle original movie ever. I dare you to name one other original Crackle movie ever.

Lemon scented furniture polish Candace Cameron Bure talks about her infamous argument with Raven on The View: "And in the same way if something, you know, conflicts with someone's deeply held religious beliefs, we should have the freedom to not have to deal with that or be associated with it. Just as on the opposite side, they don't have to either. It's, again, what makes our country so wonderful."

From The Onion: "Robert Mapplethorpe Children's Museum Celebrates Grand Opening." Okay, I actually snorted when I saw the NSFW (and oh so wrong) picture with the story.

The correct answer is "NO."

Kelly Osbourne stepped in it big time on The View, asking “If you kick every Latino out of this country, who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump?” Oh dear.

We may not have Rick Santorum to kick around much longer, as his campaign is low on funds and losing staffers.

And here's The Weekly ShoutOUT™. Each week we're going to focus on one out athlete/performer and feature a daily pic and career timeline. We'll be showcasing the big names, but also the lesser-known gay celebs who deserve more recognition. This week we give a ShoutOUT™ to ... Nicholas Rodriguez

Nicholas had his highest profile TV role as Nick Chavez on One Life To Live. The doomed side of a triangle involving Kyle Lewis and police cop Oliver Fish, he came in at #14 on the list of the Greatest Daytime Gay Characters.

We've counted down the 100 greatest top ten hits by female artists of the 80's and 90's, so let's take the Wayback Machine even further back and count down the 100 greatest top ten hits by female artists ... OF THE 70'S! There are only two rules - Every song must have hit the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100, and they all must be performed by female vocalists, either solo or as part of a group. You'll be hearing the classics from Olivia, Barbra, Linda, Carly, ABBA, Diana and the other icons, of course, but also great AM Gold treasures you probably haven't heard for years.

AND NOW THE TOP TEN! Finally, we've reached the top of the top, the ten greatest. At #5 is "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac was going through personal turmoil when they recorded Rumours, and the result was one of the greatest albums of all time.

Stevie Nicks explains the genesis of "Dreams": "I took a Fender Rhodes piano and went into another studio that was said to belong to Sly, of Sly & the Family Stone. It was a black-and-red room, with a sunken pit in the middle where there was a piano, and a big black-velvet bed with Victorian drapes. I sat down on the bed with my keyboard in front of me. I found a drum pattern, switched my little cassette player on and wrote 'Dreams' in about 10 minutes. Right away I liked the fact that I was doing something with a dance beat, because that made it a little unusual for me."

The second single released from the album, it hit #1 in June 1977, becoming Fleetwood Mac's only #1 song.

Take it away, Lucy!
