    I agree with Hobbes's assessment of hiccup cures...

    I've never heard of eating sugar to settle hiccups...

    Yeah, it has to do with struggling to swallow something dry like that forces control of the doohickey thingamawhatsit that makes swallowing happen :lol: : And sugar is pretty much the only thing like that that wouldn't be gross to swallow a spoonful of. Never worked for me though.

    Hmmm... I always thought the hiccups were related to the diaphragm, not the palatine uvula. Here's something that might make swallowing "interesting" to say the least...

    Given the sugar content of jelly donuts, I'm kind of shocked Calvin doesn't approve...

    Falling asleep wasn't a problem when I was a youngling. Later in life... well, that's a whole other matter...

    Keep in mind, Calvin & Hobbes were written in a pre-consumer GPS world...

    If Hobbes did answer the phone... what would he say?

    Maybe it's both... trucks downshifting AND Calvin's dad snoring...?

    It seems like some people ARE animals... and that isn't necessarily a good thing...
