Did you wake up nekkid next to your roommate? If not, then you didn't have that much to drink.

Anyways, drink a lot of water. That always helps.

Absoultely the best way to go...if you're that messed up at night, stick ur head underneath ur faucet and just keep on drinking as much water as you can. Doing this about 4-5 times = me never getting a hangover from beer. Hard liquor on the other hand...

Although it's too late now, it would have been better to drink water before you went to bed. Good for anyone who gets hung over easily.

I am going to have to say water the night before as well, it always works, it helps to flush the alcohol out or something, whatever it is, it works pretty damn good.

Alcohol causes you to become dehydrated, and water re-hydrates your brain.

Actually, alot of the things you consider a hangover is just dehydration. Between pissing and sweating the alcohol out of your system (and possibly puking it out too) you lose ALOT of water, much more then you consume along with the alcohol in your drinks. Also, take a shower. One of the physics grad students at my college swears by it. He claims that as your body sweats the alcohol out of your system you actually get a build up of the junk on your skin which slows your ability to get rid of more (ever wake of feeling really grimy after drinking the night before?) so you wash off the stuff and your body can more easily get the stuff out of your system.

I saw an article in Maxim about cures for a hangover and the best cure was a shot of Vodka...

IMHO, the best thing is just to sleep it off. It sometimes takes me 13-15 hours after I stop to get over my buzz...but I'm not a lightweight either.
