Well everyone has his or her own cures, but I have to say I am a self-proclaimed master in the area and every situation has a different cure.
If you can remember before you pass out, drink as much water as possible,

take 4 Advil 'gentler on your stomach', eat all the leftovers in your fridge and prepare for a deep hibernation. You’ll wake up Golden.
If you wake up in the morning still drunk and wondering what the hell happened the night before, you’re better off than you think. Just follow the chant my buddies and I used in college “The only cure is the cause!” I find that an ice-cold Corona with a lime really brings things full circle. Then you have to get out and have some fun on the trails. (Biking, running, Frisbee golf…) Just something active to get the blood following and the sweat glands pumping out the booze.
Now if you can’t pull off a fun day of drunken merriment and actually have to ‘do’ something like go to work or to the in-laws for housework.

The best solution is to take some Alka-Seltzer ‘hangover relief’, eat two pieces of toast, four Advil and drink some water. It may take a little faking at first, but after about an hour you should be back up and ready paint the town by nightfall.
Happy drinking and remember to buy a couple cold ones for your drinking buddies
