I remember a date I went on a few years ago. We went to play pool, and they had a girl walking around offering exotic drinks. One of them was called "Sex on the Pooltable." So of course I got us that one, and even though nothing happened, I was able to tell all my friends later that we had sex on the pool table (without my nose growing)!

Ah yes, all the ways to cure a "gangover!"

I've never been much of a drinker, but in my 20's I couldn't develop a taste for beer, so my drink of choice was scotch on the rocks. It NEVER left me with a hangover. "Social etiquette" seemed to require that I have a drink at a party or get-together and frankly, some of the people at my wife's Christmas parties (she worked in banking for 11 years) actually seemed to get nicer if I had about 3 drinks that first hour or so! We were just talking about that "last Bank Christmas Party" the other night on New Year's eve.

Apparently I had those three quick drinks, followed by a couple or three more. It was a cold night when we left for home (I convinced her I was fine to drive...how stupid!), but I was definitely feeling warm all over. We made the 12 mile trip home fine, she says.

The cure, you see, for my drinking of scotch came about 3 or 4 hours later.

While I crashed in bed at about 2 am, my 3 and 8 year-old sons were up at six and looking for breakfast. And it was me, ALWAYS me, who gave them breakfast on weekends.

Blinded by the light, and with my first serious head-pounding, gut wrenching "gangover" in years, I made them pancakes and bacon at 6:30 am that morning.

"Aren't you going to eat with us daddy?"

They ate alone while I visited the "throne."

My cure...a permanent one, came in the form of two sleepy-eyed kids that Saturday morning.

LOL STEVE!!! Of course, I'm wincing too, knowing how you felt too. I clearly remember a morning similar to what you described. But we BOTH felt this way! Jim and I went out to listen to live music, band quit at 2. We both were awakened by our young children, between 7 and 8 a.m. And the requests for breakfast started. I must admit my girls got cereal that morning! I took to the couch, after drinking my Pepsi, eating my pretzels and downing a few aspirin or ibuprophen. My girls kept walking up to me saying - Mommy, are you going to get up and play with us? One eye cracks open, hand on head, you get the picture, oh not now Mommy has a terrible headache (which I've been known to have, w/o drinking! Whew, good thing huh?)....they bought it for a while. TV's on, cartoons blaring, I'm feeling lousy. At one point they asked - are we going to church? Huh, church....mmmmmm, Mommy's still not feeling well. I finally went upstairs to see why Jim wasn't getting his sorry you know what out of bed! He announces he's hungover. I said hey, I am too! So long story short, we took naps on and off all day, the other watched the girls, and they just thought we were "sick". The lies you tell your kids. Well, the headache was the absolute truth! And funny thing was later we both compared what we had each had to drink - both bottled beer. Nothing unusual. And each of us had 4 at the most. I think I had 3. We both shook our heads and couldn't figure out how we BOTH had hangovers. What a day that was. That taught me a lesson. My limit now is 3, but I prefer 2 beers. And a soda pop or two in between.

What an image you presented there though Steve. Oh no! Have you slipped in the Pres-running?!!! LOL

People always laugh at this, but I've never even been in a bar, much less had a hangover!

Here's a good one involving the silk panties;

We were having a going away party for one of my employees (I was then down to three and it was year end). I didn't get a chance to eat during the day so I figured when we went across the street to "The Grotto" I'd get something then. I had a Long Island Iced Tea and started munching on junk. One of my employees had told me about the silk panties. They're actually a shot and the first one I had was soooo good. So I had another and then another. At this point I had ordered some appetizers and the party was rolling along. Well, I started to feel alittle woozy and alittle sick so I proceeded to the bathroom. I never made it out! I had gotten sick - I won't go into details. A couple of my friends came looking for me and I was locked inside the stall. One of them tried to drag me out from underneath the door but I was coherent enough to finally turn the little knob. They dragged me out and proceeded to get me to one of their cars. My boss and REALLY GOOD FRIEND Debbie came with me as they drove me to my car. Debbie drove me home and helped me in the house and then drove home. When Marty came home he was asking me "where's your car?", "what happened?", "why did you drink so much?" - not really getting any meaningful response from me.

Needless to say I was QUITE embarrassed when I went to work that Monday, but everyone was like "everyone has one of those nights". I thanked everyone who helped me PROFUSELY. I can laugh about it now, but I was ONE HURTING PUPPY!! :lol: :eek:

Same here and proud of it. People should feel good about knowing people who have never had alcoholic beverages.

I think some hung over person tried to drive through my neighbor's fence on New Year's night ... the thing half caved in but FORTUNATELY didn't break completely down. :o
