Ouch!
A friend came in from out of town yesterday. One of my best beer drinking buddies.
I am so hungover now I cant even see straight.

Double Beef Whopper and a Yoohoo.

Jeez. And you're up at 7:40 AM?! God help ya. I know your pain. Being an imbiber of the glorious fluids concocted and aged in Kentucky and Tennessee, I have had many, many episodes of "the condition."

¡Coño! A "Double Beef Whopper and a Yoohoo" during a hangover would almost certainly kill me...

Fries, and a Bloody Mary, lots of tabasco. I swear it works everytime.

kathleen -
then you skip the fries and pour antoher bloody mary....
also, in my younger days, a beer upon waking up would also do the trick.

Habaneros will burn out whatever ails you.

Here is something I heard in class/on the news along time ago, and a trick I figured out that always works:
Hangovers are caused by the impurities found in spirits. The darker the spirit the heavier the hangover. This is why one gets hungover harder after beer or gold colored liquors than after Wine or White label liquors (Vodka, Barcadi White Label, Gin, etc.) Moreover, alcohol dehydrates the body, and thus the result is a dehydrated body that can't quickly flush the impurities out. Hence, the painful wake-up on the next day.
Here's the trick:
DRINK WATER when you wake up. And drink at least a liter or two. Yes, you'll pee like you've never peed before, but that's exactly the point. You have to be hydrated, and your body has to flush everything out. Trust me, you'll feel better.
And next time after getting plastered, try to drink the water before going to sleep, you may do a midnight run to the john, but you will wake-up the next day with less of the pain.

Sonquacassal, drinking plenty of water before going to bed is key however; if you are that bombed that you're going to be hung-over, you are NEVER going to remember to drink water.
Ok, raise your hands: If you can't remember how you even got to bed, how are you going to remember to drink water?????

Was just gonna say what Joaquin and Songqua said. Take an aspirin before bed too, cuts the next-day pain in half. Just put the stuff by your bedside before you go out, you'll know what to do when you get back.

Good point Joaquin! Besides... if you're that plastered and still manage to drink water... hehehe... you still run the risk of peeing in bed.
