It’s a daily drop of what’s been kicking around the internet today, all in one handy place.

- SNL has fired three cast members. That doesn’t mean their careers are over. Take a look at this list of The Most Successful SNL Cast Members. A few will surely surprise you.
- Microsoft says they’re out of the Android business, then says they’ll lay off nearly 18,000, most former Nokia employees.
- Aliens or Gas Explosion? Those are the two leading theories about this GIANT hole that just opened up from the Earth’s crust in Siberia. Hey. Wait a minute. Wasn’t there an explosion in Siberia in 1908? Yep. Maybe the aliens left the gas on and had to come back.
- Legendary blues/rock guitarist Johnny Winter died last night. He was 70. Dan Ackroyd‘s alter-ego, Elwood Blues, hosts his own radio program called The Bluesmobile. They’ve tied together a series of Johnny’s performances and interviews from the show. It’s worth a listen.
