How to Get Rid of the Hiccups - esp. good for when you are in a meeting!

Hiccups always come at the most inopportune times. Get rid of them FAST, without anyone knowing you had them to begin with!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• A writing utensil
• Something to drink

1. Uh oh, you've got the hiccups, and you're in a meeting with all the higher-ups. What to do? First, take a large gulp of whatever it is you are drinking. Don't swallow!
2. Drop your pen or pencil on the floor - make it look like an accident.
3. Bend over to retrieve your pen or pencil. When you are bent far enough over so that no one can see you (this works great when all parties are seated around a large table), plug your ears.
4. Try to get your head as "upside down" as possible and swallow sloooooowly while still plugging ears.
5. Unplug. Retrieve item. Sit up and enjoy an awkward moment - avoided!
