Oh dear, he could be in real trouble if you call him at work and he has the hiccups, but they are gone by the time he gets home. If only Clinton had that condition, he could have blamed . . . , oh, well, better to not go there.

Penni,

Indeed this is a novel cure for hiccups--one which I have never before heard of! I've heard of some unusual and bizarre remedies, but this one takes the plaid rabbit at the carnival!

I think you should write of this amazing cure and submit it to the various medical journals! I mean, why limit your wit and wisdom to Parents Magazine? Let's do it! Whaddaya say?

North Carlolina Leaky? Never Chance Lifeboats? What?

I see you already have four scintillating replies to this most intimate personal revelation... -
but how can I resist such bait. never mind the pointy glinty thing inside.

I can see how it might be hard to attempt the Cure while in the throes of severe hiccups. My hat is off to Dan for a positively Tantric ability to compartment his circulatory reserves.
