Can You Imagine an Elephant with Hiccups?
She had the hiccups.
She'd had them earlier today, too... during church... in the middle of singing. I actually asked her to stop singing, just so she wouldn't be caught with her mouth wide open when the next hiccup struck. I'm not proud of it, but what would you have done?
When they revisited her tonight, I tried explaining to her what caused them, but I soon realized that the only information I had came from my eighth-grade health class, and it sounded less and less credible the more I muddled through it.
So I turned to the next most accurate source: "The Internet".
We found an explanation easily enough, but once we saw a link for "The 30 Second Cure for Hiccups," all of a sudden it was completely beside the point, and a new question pressed us: can we truly rid ourselves of this most annoying plague?
The answer, for now, is: yes. You can be sure that we'll subject this method to further scrutiny. Right now, though, we're 1 for 1. Try it for yourself and let us all know how it turns out!
from Joshua 6:
10 Now Joshua had commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, ‘Shout!’ Then you shall shout.”

I drink water upside down myself, but this was difficult to teach my kids. So I told them to take in air, swallow and repeat. It worked. Same concept as the upside down water swallow because you have to swallow air with the water. You are forced to hold your breath or water would go up your nose... not pretty.
