Welcome to the first of many (hopefully) semi-weekly posts of the news you may have missed and random news that I find entertaining. Plus a special cocktail to help you celebrate the weekend.
- New Jersey Police mistake a lost hobo for Bob Dylan... or the other way around.
- According the New York Times, that beer belly you've been trying to suck in all summer is actually quite sexy or this is yet another lame thing hipsters are trying to make cool. Resist!
- Shocking news! Only 40% of messages on twitter are "pointless babble". I find that hard to believe.
- Never want to leave your house again? Consider investing in an Arkeg. You'll thank me.
- Listen to a few sample tracks off of Andrew W.K.'s new album 55 Cadillac here.
- Screaming Females added to the 2009 CMJ Music Marathon from October 20-24 in NYC.
- Traces of cocaine found on U.S. currency. (I feel like there is a good 80's/James Spader/Less Than Zero joke here... I got nothing.)
- Ever heard of cold brewing your coffee?
- More news about the Where The Wild Things Are soundtrack.
- The people at yesbutnobutyes.com take a look at recent stage falls. I have to say I'm a little disappointed they didn't mention Bret Michaels glorious stage encounter with a slow moving piece of scenery.
- According to Scientific American, 25% of fish in U.S. waterways have unsafe levels of mercury. Sorry, Chris Kattan, looks like Jeremy Piven wasn't making that up.
And other reasons not to eat fish.

Stay tuned. Next week I may have an actual cocktail. Fingers crossed.
