Here is a sure-fire way (for me anyhow) to get rid of hiccups (or hiccoughs,
if you prefer. Neither one is in the `spell' dictionary): I simply eat a
heaping teaspoon of creamy peanut butter.  What I want to know is whether or
not this method works for anyone else, so the next time you have a bad case of
hiccups, try it and let me know.  Note: I have also tried the `drink water from
the far edge of the cup' method when creamy peanut butter was not available,
and have found it to be much less reliable.
