Super Happy Birthday to Jonathan Groff, who turns 25 today!

  • CBS5 has a wonderful video tribute to out retiring reporter Hank Plante. The multi-award-winner has been with the San Francisco station for 25 years.
  • If you've ever seen The Glass Menagerie and thought "I wonder if the character of Tom is gay?", the new revival of the Tennessee Williams classic will have you wonder no more.
  • Okay, did you know that Wolverine has a son? And his names is Daken? And he's bisexual ... and a sociopath? And he has funky hair? And he may have a thing for Bullseye (who was played by Colin Farrell in Daredevil?) You can check it out in this preview for the new issue of Dark Wolverine, which comes out next week. So who is Daken's mother (and don't tell me Jean Grey ... that teleki-hussy didn't deserve him.) (t/y to AE reader Hope).

  • Below you can see Rachel Maddow chatting with Lt. Dan Choi about his arrest and the evolving status of DADT.

  • We're always thrilled to give you a heads up about gay singer/songwriters you may be unfamiliar with, and today we're putting the spotlight on introspective Canadian artist Enio. Give him a listen while you enjoy the dark, brooding thing he has going on.

  • Below you can see the new webisode of the Star Trek-influenced fan series Dark Frontier, featuring gay Bajoran hottie Reon. * Warning - there is one expletive in the vid that rhymes with "Roley Snit".

And today's Briefs are brought to you by...

Thanks to everyone for participating! Last week's pic caused a bit of controversy, but I assure you these guys are just look-a-likes, not related. How do i know? Look, just go with it, okay? Anyway, I love poetry (although with a name like "Snicks", all I've been subjected to are ... limericks), so the obvious winner this week is ...

"Little Jack Horne Sat in a corner Wearing a Christmassy hat. Though he may look coy He snagged this cute boy: Can you guess where his thumb is at? "

Thanks to Only_Tony for this week's winning caption.
