question of the weekend: What is your preferred hangover cure?

With New Year’s Eve almost upon us, there is a vital topic we must discuss:

What is your preferred hangover cure?

Prevention is, as always, the best cure, so I generally try to avoid getting so drunk I end up hungover the next morning -- no good time is worth losing the next morning (or, ahem, entire day) to. But in the event that prevention is not forthcoming, I tend to go with a simple curative. First, lots of water before I go to sleep, if I know I’ve drunk too much, to forestall the dehydration that is the main cause of a hangover. And then, the next day, gallons of tea, a bit of toast, and a long walk in the fresh air.
