@paulg I'm hunting the etymology you gave for "fly off the handle" in http://www.paulgraham.com/essay.html - do you remember where you got it?
Is that the right link? I don't see any reference to that phrase there.

You're right-it describes swords breaking off of handles, which I then associated with the phrase, which I'd heard elsewhere. Sorry!
