Ooh ooh I can answer this one! I get them like twice a week :eek:
I have various options:

1. Hold your breath until you can picture three bald men who you know..
2. Drink from the other side of the cup, if that makes sense: this is a failproof method for me.. So you end up drinking upside-down, basically.
3. Get saliva in your mouth, squeeze your temples with the heels of your hands, and then swallow.

Umm that's all I can think of right now, I'm sure I'll think of more..:p

Hiccups are basically the diaphragm going into spasm, if you relax and concentrate on something other than the hiccup and relax breathing slowly and deeply they will stop of their own accord. The various methods employed by folks in essence take your mind of it focussing on something else and reduce the breathing rate hence they sometimes work.
