Monolith Hangover Winners!
A big thanks to everyone who left all the great hangover tips in our post about having
Monolith Hangover last week. Not only were they helpful but it sorta made us want to go out and get trashed with the promise of no hangovers thanks to all the advice from everyone. We do have to choose just two though as winners of the new CD from Editors - An End Has A Start. And here they are….along with the prescribed cure of course.
Crystal provides a very medical sounding cure, but I buy it…..
Hangover Cure That Works…
Sleep in (a cool climate is best, but not always available as in you are camping).
When you get up:
B-12 500 mcg
Folic Acid 400 - 800 mcg
1 - 2 Mucinex D tablets (have to sign for them in Ohio)
1 - 2 Bufferin or Ibuprofin tablets
Water or Iced Tea - Don’t suck down a whole bunch at once; sip slowly but often
You’ll be ready for the new day’s first beer before you know it !
And I like how Greg puts alot of thought into his explanation, lots of good thoughts here as well….
Not necessarily in this order;
1. Lots of water (preferably before you go to bed but also the day after).
2. Some greasy sustenance (some the night before doesn’t hurt either (assuming you kept it down)).
3. High dosage of your preferred pain reliever at the prescribed intervals until cured.
4. Get rid of whomever is around (whether a temporary guest from the night before or someone more permanent). For a little while you are going to be a sniveling, disgusting, and shameful wreck that no one will want to see with an acute distaste for everything and everyone–so clear the area.
4. Long hot, steamy shower (as soon as you are able to get up walk without plummeting back to the floor).
5. Moan.
6. Groan.
7. Some woxy vintage (on a very low volume!). (You can exchange this for some bad cable TV or PBS documentary if desired).
8. Swear you will never drink that much again (this step is often debated regarding its effectiveness, but inevitably is always called upon by the victim, so just assume it will be part of the recovery process).
9. Call your friends as you begin to feel better to see when the next party is starting?
10. Repeat.
Thanks everyone!

So Joe, did you and the rest of the staff have to tie a serious one on every night to determine which remedy worked best?
