TODAY IS

Candace Cameron, who played DJ on "Full House" and "Fuller House," turns 41 today. Wow. Next thing you'll tell me is those cute little Olson twins are all grown up. They are?

Zach Braff, who we got to know in "Scrubs," turns 42 today. We need a birthday cake, stat! Talk about a guy who went from cutting edge to cutting hedges.

Jason Hervey -- he was older brother Wayne in the Wonder Years -- turns 45 today, butt-head. Must be weird to be in 2017, looking back to the 1990's when you played someone in the 1970's. I believe he was the first to ever say "Butthead" on TV. And also the second, third, fourth, etc.

Patrick Hernandez turns 68 today. He had a disco hit back in the 70's called "Born to be Alive." Almost time to sing, "Dying to be Dead."

John Ratzenberger turns the big 7-0 today. He was Cliff in "Cheers" and Hamm the toy pig in "Toy Story." I'd say a pretty complete career.
