The best thing is to drink pedialyte, the night you drank.

Hydration makes sense, and getting something to eat before going to sleep.

When I was younger I somehow managed to go jogging after those nights thinking I'd sweat the juice out. I still didn't feel all that great afterward, but seem to recall regaining equilibrium sooner.

Did you read "The Right Stuff?" Woolfe describes the test pilots going to work huffing pure o2 from a tank to burn off the residual alcohol from their previous night's carousing. Does anyone know if there is any sense in this?

Back in the days when I was indulging in ethyl alcohol imbued consumables (in other words, back when I was a drunk) I used to huff O2 from my Dad's Oxy-Acetylene setup.. I always thought I felt better afterwards... (Two observations on this tactic... First, make sure you run the O2 long enough to clear out any acetylene that may be in the pipe and second, it took a long time using that method..so maybe it was the coffee kicking in!)

Yep. The 'Stews' used to used the O2 on planes after a bad night. . .
