Probably lots of people but thanks for sharing this information. I on the other hand remembered to drink two large glasses of water before passing out last night, so no hangover for me.

I fell asleep. I don't drink though so it was because I was sleepy.

It's just another day to me.

Not drunk.

Had a few beers last night with my wife, and a couple glasses of champagne.

All over the course of about 6 hours though. So not much of a buzz even. Just a bit of celebration

And of course.....Sour Kraut and Polish sausage for dinner

Happy New Year,
Whitehat

I was pretty wasted last night, but today was ok.
I drank some orange juice before going to bed

Best Anti-Hangover Remedy: Drink Gatorade as your last shot before sleeping (or passing out, depending). Seriously, this works. -- J.W.

You know when you're drunk properly, because you have difficulty focusing/co-ordinating, so you think that you'll get some sleep. But as soon as you turn out the light, the darkness starts to spin, making you even dizzier, so you have to turn the light back on to halt the "spinning" some.

At this point, you should remember to try and sleep face down. It's better to wake up laying in a puddle of puke, than not to wake up at all after you've inhaled your own vomit - though you wouldn't know, just your family and the friendly local ME/Coroner.

Happy new year.

regards

John

The drinking doesn't bother me that much, it's the lack of sleep that is giving me trouble...

I stayed up extremely late working on my network and os. Drinking is not good for the serious hacker. It can lead to shaky nerves and impatience. Personally, I try not to drink anything harder than a milkshake or a warm chocolate.

Funny, mine is those chocolate Yahoo drinks. Hmmm, think I'll go get one now.
