When you've got water stuck in your ear, how do you get it out?

I'll give the obnoxiously dorky answer: I trickle more water into my ear to disrupt the surface tension. Once I hear the pitch change, I know the water is ready to get dumped out. I turn my head, jump and down and then, ta da! The water trickles out bringing with it the old water that was clogged in there to begin with. Works every time.
