Getting Rid of the Hiccups

After we ate yesterday at Dog & Suds, Pam got the hiccups. And it reminded me.

I was probably in fourth grade at the time. Some TV show--it might have been Candid Camera--sent someone around asking people, "How do you get rid of the hiccups?"

One person said, "I think of seven bald-headed men."

Sounds silly, but: it worked me me. I kid you not. I would start thinking about bald guys in our church, and the hiccups would go away. I didn't even need to reach seven.

I'm serious. This worked for me. For years.
