9. I'm trying to decide
Actually, it's not so much of a hangover as it is the extracrummy bed I sleep in, which multiplies my various aches and pains by a factor of 20 when I get drunk and very relaxed.

I had some water last night and during the night, so my head's okay...fortunately, sake benders don't seem to affect me as much as, say, vodka shots benders :P.

I'll have to go with a combo: water, aspirin/advil/vicodin (not all three!), coffee, and Robb is a dingbat.

:hi:

11. My old remedies
A great big frosty glass of ice-cold chocolate milk or a great big frosty glass of ice-cold strong coffee sweetened with fructose but no cream.

12. Turkey club and cold pilsner.
At least that used to work for me. Asprin shortly before crashing also seemed to blunt the worst of it.

Getting to old for that shit. If I incurred the kind of hangovers that I suffered in my youth it would probably kill me.

13. Combination method
An aspirin or advil and 2 big glasses of water before bed (the more the better)...

A hearty meal, strong coffee or two, and more water in the morning. Another aspirin if I have the remains of a headache.

Note: Hair of the Dog works also, but you can't stop after the first -- its a better option for a time like Mardi Gras where you never really sober up.
