Would you believe I was in Nashville a couple of years ago and I had the chance to eat at White Castle!!!And my dumb-assed sister in law said: "nah, let's go somewhere else, I'm not in the mooooood" I wanted to cave her head in! But, since my wife was present (and kids) I bit my lip and had donuts instead.

Hangover preventative measures:

  1. Eat before drinking
  2. Do not mix liquors (not because of any old wives tale but because people tend to know how much beer/wine/hard liquor they can drink but when you mix them, they lose track and overdrink)
  3. Last minute snacks are a BAD idea
  4. Drink plenty of water before bed
  5. Take a couple of painkillers of choice at the same time.
Hangover "cures" (there aren't really any but this is what I do):

  1. Drink plenty of water
  2. Eat something sweet - a handful of M&M's does wonders
  3. Eat something greasy - When I lived in NO, it was shrimp po-boys and oysters on the half shell for lunch. After that you curl up into a fetal position for about an hour and then you are cured.

Sir you are a gentleman and a scholar. Yes Krispy-Kremes, right off the fryer (really only reason I didn't whack her;) ) the donuts made up for the lack of burgers.

Drinking is bad for you. If you are hung over enough to need to "cures", painkillers are the least of your worries.

Water before bed and a couple Tylenol. If it's not too bad I go on a run in the morning too and "sweat it out".

The last time I had a hangover was in 2000 after my promotion party in Germany. Funneling German beer prior to the bar then everyone buying you shots plus more beer equals vomit all down the side of your buddies golf. I have some much crazier stories from Germany but those are best left unsaid.


I'm easy to please now, two jack and cokes or vodka/ redbulls and I'm in my happy zone.

Good one. Early morning yard work in the south (think lots of humidity) is a "rip the band-aid off" approach to a hangover. At first you feel like dieing, but by lunch, you're ready for a beer... theoretically...

Which also reminds me, most of these pill "cures" are just charcoal and/or vitamins. Supposed to soak up the toxins or something. I've never tried them.

How about, we tell WHY we needed these cures. :D

I guess I am not the only one who woke up with a headache this morning, grrr. I just drink a lot of ice water, yes A LOT. No TV, just some chillout music or the XM chillout station and try to go back to sleep. I guess there's nothing you can do except let time pass.

Actually I should say this evening, I didn't crawl off my couch until 2PM, yes I have a bedroom, just well, never mind...lol
