Hum Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 :laugh: Small sips of orange juice thru the day. Avoid milk, cheese, dairy stuff. Wash your hands before eating. If you are a smoker, QUIT. And try to spend a few minutes outdoors breathing some fresh air. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaptain chump Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 just hopes its not viral (strep). Gargle a mixture of warm salt water at various times the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 I pour some kinda beachams stuff down my throat. I think it's honey mixed with something else. The best measures are to take it easy though in my experience.. no stress on the body (that means no exercise, no drinking etc). You can take all the medicines in the world, but if you still go out drinking you're only going to get worse. (Rant : I'd just like to say threads like this are why I no longer use Neowin as a technical reference at work, and dont recommend it to my co-workers and project managers. It's frankly embarasing to go to a site to show them some relevent news, and to a see a list of recent posts consisting of little boys trying to find out how to pull a girl, how to tie their shoes and posting really really stupid thread titles. No bad feelings to thread stater, it's just a change from a tech site to a community.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No bad feelings to thread stater, it's just a change from a tech site to a community.) You're right - Neowin IS a community. It has grown beyond being just a techie site where we can learn how to fix our computers, how to buy stuff, get programming questions answered, etc., to being a really swell place to chat. If you don't like the general discussion, you ARE more than welcome to use the other areas and never step foot in the general stuff area again. You have a happy holiday, ok? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symbiotic Hat Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 1 shot hard liquor (I use Jack) right before you go to bed .... it will kill all the crap in your throat. Works about 50% of the time, but hey if it doesn't work, no harm. Hope you feel better, Jeavis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
