Last night I was out and came down with a dreaded case of the hick-ups.
I usually take seven small, quick sips of water and they go away, sometimes.
Well, last night they did not. So I tell a bartender about my affliction and she pours me a short glass of water, lights a match, extingushes the flame in the water and tells me to drink it. I do and guess what, the hick-ups are history. She said it had something to do with the sulfer in the match. That's a new one me, but it was effective. Anyother hick-up cures out there?

Hold your breath until either the hiccups stop or you pass out. If you pass out, the hiccups won't bother you anyway.

I read this not too long ago and, I have only tried it a couple of times, but it has worked. The trick is to try to hiccup on your own. Since the real hiccups are involuntary, the actual attempt to hiccup will stop the involuntary ones. Again, not too many trials, but it is easier than putting a bag on your head.

a big spoonful of peanut butter does work every time.

I once knew guy who said he had never had a cavity, eventhough he seldom brushed his teeth. Needless to say, we all kept our distance, especially women.

Eat a teaspoon of sugar. I don't remember the specifics, but I've read that this actually has some scientific validity.

This one's easy.

Just drink a big glass of water, but instead of drinking from the bottom edge of the glass, drink from the top.

:ok:
