The first game of the month, which conveniently fell on New Year’s Day, offered our first challenge: Write 15 trivia questions about hangover cures. While we suspected that our collective experience would be enough to write two or three games, we decided to back ourselves up with some hard-hitting scientific fact. We rolled up our sleeves and scoured the internet for time-honored remedies to post-party misery . The result: a game that, in retrospect, could have been titled: “Hangover: The World Tour.” [...] [...] In honor of the overindulgence that inevitably piggybacks the holidays, our team cooked up a little promotion for January that we like to call “Cheers to the New Year” trivia… one of our more brilliant ideas, if we do say so ourselves.

We thought it sounded pretty ridiculous also, but you never know. Just the other day I got burned by a cooking sheet at a party, only to have some older woman put butter on my wound. I didn't think that made much sense, but then again, how often do you get to have a cougar butter your body? For me, that was only the third time, so I ran with it. Thank you both for your knowledge, I'll stop rubbing lemons on my pits henceforth. JC and VaughnSC, we trust your experience drinking and on all things Puerto Rico.

I am 100% certain that we could have had a blast. Anyway - I agree with him. I never heard the lemon story. The only time I interchange lemon and lime is with Don Julio.

Whoever came up with that was 'hablando mierda' (talking shit) and you can tell them I said so. :) I’ve lived and boozed in Puerto Rico for three decades and have never EVER heard of the ‘lemon in the armpit’ story until now.

Booze has been popular for centuries and that is obvious because the ancient Greeks’ recipe for a hangover is to have a breakfast of sheep lungs and two owl eggs. Fellow Romans believed in munching on deep-fried canaries and Haitians insist sticking 13 pins into the offending bottle would completely cure you. The Irish have a strange custom to cure hangovers: burying the person in moist river sand (if not done properly though, this cure may become permanent). And the Wild West was wild indeed because the seriously wasted would down seriously bad-tasting cups of bunny-poo tea. Sicilians didn’t just give the world Mafia, they also gave us the famous hangover cure: dried bull’s penis.

Hangover cures come in two paradigms: prophylactic and acute treatment. Most alcohol consumers don't begin drinking with the intention to reach the level at which a hangover occurs. Usually trial and error helps us all learn that limit from wretchedly powerful experience. I totally agree with the quality and blending of alcohols being a big factor in hangover outcomes.. Recently however on a well sourced suggestion i used dehydrated Nopal cactus powder (opuntia ficus-indica) for both hangover prevention and treatment. Wow ...amazing....everyone to whom i have passed on this remedy, and has actually tried it was equally impressed. There is even some science behind it. 1-2 teaspoons in water or juice does the trick, and works best when taken before drinking begins. I have found it to also be effective, if i can remember just before bed and thankfully the morning after. I can't imagine it doing much when you’re so hung-over that nothing stays down, which is best served with an IV, per my paramedic friend's experience. The best deal on Good quality dehydrated Nopal is at www.nopalamerica.com.. They ship PRIORITY for free. Thanks for the rounded view.

Half a pint of orange juice, and half a pint of none other than the finest beverage known to man: Pabst Blue Ribbon. Great twist on the brass monkey. I’m a big fan of the pimosa.
