skittles - my mom popped them every now and then from her drive back to alabama which was 17 hours. They'll give you short bursts of energy.

Eat a lot of fruit, keep yourself hydrated, stop ever second hour to run like crazy for 5 minutes and repeat.

This kept me awake for 96 hours straight once.

Here's one suggestion: breaks to stretch and get the blood flowing. Don't rely too much on caffeine. It isn't a 'stimulant' so much as a 'depressant suppressant'. You're equally capable of falling asleep after drinking coffee as you were before, it's just that your body probably isn't telling you "I'm TIRED, yo." It's saying "all's well" and then you wake up in a ditch from a micronap.

Are you making the trip alone? The longest drive I've done was 9 hours down to DC, but it was closer to 11.5 on the drive back thanks to traffic in Jersey. Wretched place.

Make sure you're well rested before you leave. Make sure you have some sort of snack with you in the car to keep your energy up. Don't over-eat, 'cause that'll make you tired. Get good tunes crankin', etc. Breaks are also good because just getting off the highway for driving that includes actually turning your wheels helps curb the highway hypnosis.

Drink some coffee every 5 hours or so, make sure you have some fresh air, and bring a toy or something *Not a little kid toy;I meant a gag or something digital* to keep you entertained. I suggest an ipod, so you cant blast music.

Adderall. I it kept me awake for 19 hours, in which I learned trigonometry, finished an entire chapter of chemistry, did my Algebra II homework for the past three weeks, and before I took the adderall I had <30 gigs of space on my laptop. When I was finished, I had 114 gb.

Blew my fucking mind.

I received equal hilarious advice and real advice. Just the way I like it...

Thanks all you f'ing tards for the funny ones and thanks to all those who took it serious.

I didn't die and I made it! Now I have to turn around and do it again on Wednesday. I almost didn't make it through the last 2 hours. It was around 7 am before I arrived.

AND whoever said the deal about coffee not working, you were correct. My navigator had to continue to press on my finger nails to keep me awake. You know, that technique to see if a person REALLY fainted.

Last thing, Merry Christmas assholes.

Especially since you don't snort crack, you smoke it.

You can snort it, as well.
