Hiccup cure.
Do a shot of lemon juice. Something about the acid in the juice stopping the muscle contraction that causes the hiccup.
Also…
Thanks Evo! Pickle Tales is a tough competition, but a lot of fun to do!
Also…
Jesus saves and only takes half damage.

Sadly I have a new coworker who shares my office, I started to play this episode at a very low level on my computer, but very quickly realized, I can’t listen to Wingin It while she’s here, just too strong of language for her.

Joe, as far as I’m concerned, don’t worry about show notes. We’ll listen to the episode and figure them out for ourselves. Take care of yourself, man.

Jack:
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Can I have some candy?

This needs to be re-named the Proctology Show.
Which makes the statement that I’m behind Hichael and Evo 100% disturbing.

Hearing about that hiccup cure gave me the hiccups.
December 7th, 2006 at 12:45 pm
Patients to cure hiccup? How long does that take?
December 7th, 2006 at 3:33 pm
Where was the Fear and Loathing in Middle Earth from? That was awesome!
December 7th, 2006 at 4:05 pm
Oh, my dear clockwork heaven, Fear and Loathing in Middle Earth nearly got me canned, I was laughing so hard. The people in the nearby cubicles were literally throwing food at me.
December 7th, 2006 at 7:48 pm
The fear and loathing in the shire totally rocked. fantastic job. mentioned the hicup cure to workers who came to work the morning shift and the all had the same responce…how the hell they decided to give that cure a try?
My question is how many people were cured that way before they considered it a sucess?

Thanks for the PT lovin’
It’s been a close race, for sure. My favorite hiccup cure has to be the spoonful of peanut butter. Works every time.

Speaking of hiccup cures have you tried Digital Rectal Massage? The 2006 igNobel prize for Medicine was awarded for “”Termination of Intractable Hiccups with Digital Rectal Massage.” DRM takes on a whole new meaning.

Isn’t DRM when you have your friend from Second Life control a butt plug vibrator hooked up to your computer?
December 8th, 2006 at 4:16 pm
I didn’t know that Second Life required you to insert a vibrator butt plug to be controlled remotely. Thanks for the heads up! I think DRM in that case would be called Digital Rectal Management which isn’t a whole lot different than Digital Rights Management. Kinda reminds of that South Park episode The Entity.
