Here comes one of those stories that makes you skeptical of its claims. Remember the phrase "you play, you pay"? Well, apparently we might someday be able to have all the fun without the consequences.

There is a professor in London who has reportedly come up with a pill to eliminate hangovers. Last year, Doctor David Nutt (no kidding) developed a pill that duplicated the feeling of having a few drinks without the toxic side effects.

Now, he claims to have invented one that eliminates the hangover altogether. Don't be looking for it anytime soon. Research on the drug could take years before its available, and that's assuming it does what the professor claims.

Until then we're left to the traditional cures for too much celebrating. From greasy breakfasts to immediate rehydration, everyone has their own particular remedy.

If I remember correctly, one of our Facebook posts from New Years asking for best hangover cures was wildly popular. Keep it bookmarked until the good Dr. Nutt's magic pill becomes readily available.

This all reminds me of comedian Larry Miller's classic bit, "The Five Levels of Drinking".
