Do you remember that movie called Anger supervision starring Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler? Adam played the passive aggressive bullied-by-his-boss type and Jack played the anger supervision guru who ran anger supervision classes and whose job in the film it seems was to try and get Adam angry!
And boy did Jack succeed! There was the ‘transvestite in the back of the cab’ scene (played ‘manfully’ by Woody Harrelson), and Jack even got Adam to beat up a Buddhist monk!

So, the point of this article?
Well, I reckon we’ve all starred in our very own anger supervision movie or two – scenes where *we* fully lost it. And whilst I’d love to read all about your sublime angry moment, I think instead I’ll share with you one singular time that I got very, very angry – oops!
(Just to show that none of us can take anger supervision for granted!)
Okay, I was working in an It agency for a Uk financial institution some time back in the 90s. My boss was one of those classic ‘consultant’-types who didn’t know enough to do the job but he still got paid as if he did. Unfortunately, in this singular case my boss wasn’t good at hiding this fact (a skill most consultants swiftly learn, if they are ever to progress)
So it comes to a emergency meeting, where we’re all trying to work out what went wrong in a singular task and what we could do about it.
And the more the meeting’s going along the more it’s sure that what needs to be done needs to be done by me. (To my horror!) But my boss doesn’t seem to notice this; the meeting just goes on and on without my boss asking who can do the singular job. And the more the meeting goes on the more I resent the fact that this is something that I have to do, and that I have to tell my boss that this is something I have to do…
And so, for some reckon that I unquestionably cannot remember, this sequence of events is enough for me to explode in a rage aimed directly at my boss. In full view of ten or so people, none of whom had *ever* seen me lose my temper once!
Oh, did I forget to tell you that I was a mild-mannered Adam Sandler type who never got angry?
Well I did that day! And a lot of habitancy steered clear of me from that point on.
And the unquestionably funny thing about my anger supervision ‘movie’? I unquestionably can’t remember exactly why I got so angry, I just know that I did. And it was embarrassing. For all concerned.
So that’s my story. Maybe it’s your turn to share now. Even if only to yourself. Go on, you’ll be surprised what revisiting a sure poisonous situation will divulge about who you were then and who you are right now…
This is My ‘Anger supervision Movie’ – Now When Did You Last Get Angry?

I gain these. Additions to this list are welcome. Also, note that in some cases I don’t know the origin of a particular expression. If you have knowledge or theories of origin for whatever below, I’d also like to hear from you. I hope you enjoy these.
Talking straight through Your Hat
Hat
To talk nonsense or to lie. C1885. [In an interview in The World entitled "How About White Shirts", a reporter asked a New York streetcar conductor what he plan about efforts to get the conductors to wear white shirts like their counterparts in Chicago. "Dey're talkin' tru deir hats" he was quoted as replying.]
Eating Your Hat
There is no such thing as a sure thing, but that’s where this expression comes from. If you tell man you’ll eat your hat if they do something, make sure you’re not wearing your best hat-just in case. [The expression goes back at least to the reign of Charles Ii of Great Britain and had something to do with the amorous proclivities of 'ol Charlie. Apparently they named a goat after him that had his same love of life which included, in the goat's case, eating hats.]
Old Hat
Old, dull stuff; out of fashion. [This seems to come from the fact that hat fashions are permanently changing. The fact of the matter is that hat fashions had not been changing very fast at all until the turn of the 19th Century. The expression therefore is likely about 100 years old.]
Mad As A Hatter
Totally demented, crazy. [Hatters did, indeed, go mad. They inhaled fumes from the mercury that was part of the process of production felt hats. Not recognizing the violent twitching and derangement as symptoms of a brain disorder, habitancy made fun of affected hat-makers, often treating them as drunkards. In the U.S., the health was called the "Danbury shakes." (Danbury, Connecticut, was a hat-making center.) Mercury is no longer used in the felting process: hat-making -- and hat-makers -- are safe.]
Hat In Hand
A demonstration of humility. For example, “I come hat in hand” means that I come in deference or in weakness. [I assume that the origins are from feudal times when serfs or any lower members of feudal society were required to take off their hats in the nearnessy of the lord or monarch (remember the Dr. Seuss book "The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins"?). A hat is your most prideful adornment.]
Pass The Hat
Literally to pass a man’s hat among members of an audience or group as a means for collecting money. Also to beg or ask for charity. [The origin is self-evident as a man's hat turned upside down makes a fine container.]
Tight As Dick’s Hat Band
Anything that is too tight. [The Dick in this case is Richard Cromwell, the son of England's 17th Century "dictator", Oliver Cromwell. Richard succeeded his dad and wanted to be king but was speedily disposed. The hatband in the phrase refers to the crown he never got to wear.]
Hat Trick
Three consecutive successes in a game or another endeavor. For example, taking three wickets with three successive pitches by a bowler in a game of cricket, three goals or points won by a player in a game of soccer or ice hockey, etc. [From cricket, from the former custom of awarding a hat to a bowler who dismissed three batsmen with three successive balls.]
Hard Hats
In the 19th Century, men who wore derby hats specifically Eastern businessmen and later crooks, gamblers and detectives. [Derby hats, a.k.a. Bowlers or Cokes, were initially very hard as they were advanced in 1850 for use by a game warden, horseback rider wanting protection.] Today, “Hard Hats” are building workers [for obvious reasons].
In One’s Hat, or In Hat
An expression of incredulity. [Origin unknown. Help us if you can]
Throwing A Hat In the Ring
Entering a contest or a race e.g. A political run for office. [A buyer wrote us with the following: "I read in "The Language of American Politics" by William F. Buckley Jr. That the phrase "throw one's hat in the ring" comes from a custom of 19th Century saloonkeepers putting a boxing ring in the middle of the barroom so that customers who wanted to fight each other would have a place to do so without beginning a donnybrook. If a man wanted to indicate that he would fight anybody, he would throw his hat in the ring.
At one point, Theodore Roosevelt declared he was running for office with a speech that included a line that went something like, "My hat is in the ring and I am stripped to the waist". The phrase "my hat in the ring" stuck, probably because "I am stripped to the waist" is a tiny gross.]
Hats Off . . .
“Hats off to the U.S. Winter Olympic Team” for example. An exclamation of approval or kudos. [Origins must be from the fact that taking one's hat off or tipping one's hat is a primary demonstration of respect.]
A Feather In Your Cap
A special achievement. [I assume that the origins on this expression hail from the days when, in fact, a feather for one's cap would be awarded for an accomplishment much like a medal is awarded today and pinned to one's uniform. A feather, or a pin, add a obvious reputation or luster to one's apparel.]
Hold On To Your Hat(s)
A warning that some excitement or danger is imminent. [When riding horseback or in an open-air early automobile, the exclamation "hold on to your hat" when the horse broke into a gallop or the car took-off was no ifs ands or buts literal.]
Bee In Your Bonnet
An indication of agitation or an idea that you can’t let go of and just have to express. [A real bee in one's bonnet no ifs ands or buts precipitates expression.]
Wearing Many Hats
This of course is a metaphor for having many distinct duties or jobs. [Historically, hats have often been an integral, even necessary, part of a working uniform. A miner, welder, building worker, undertaker, white-collar employee or banker before the 1960s, chef, farmer, etc. All wear, or wore, a particular hat. Wearing "many hats" or "many distinct hats" simply means that one has distinct duties or jobs.]
All Hat and No Cattle
All show and no substance. For example, in October 2003, Senator Robert Byrd declared that the Bush administration’s declarations that it wanted the United Nations as a partner in transforming Iraq were “All Hat and No Cattle”. [This Texas expression refers to men who dress the part of noteworthy cattlemen, but don't have the herds back home.]
To Hang Your Hat (or not)
To commit to something (or not), or stake your reputation on something (or not), like an idea or policy. For example “I wouldn’t hang my hat on George Steinbrenner’s decision to fire his manager.” [Origin unknown. Can whatever help with this one?]
At the Drop of a Hat
Fast. [Dropping a hat, can be a way in which a race can start (instead of a beginning gun for example). Also, a hat is an apparel item that can no ifs ands or buts come to be dislodged from its wearer. whatever who wears hats commonly has experienced the quickness by which a hat can fly off your head.]
To Tip Your Hat or A Tip of the Hat
An endorsement of respect, approval, appreciation, or the like. Example: “A tip of the hat to American troops for the capture of Saddam Hussein.” [This is simply verbalizing an example of hat etiquette. Men would (and some still do) tip their hat to transport the same message.]
My Hat Instead of Myself
This is an expression from Ecuador, home of the “Panama” hat. It means what is says; it is preferable to give up your hat than your life. [The Guayas River runs straight through Guayaquil, Ecuador's largest city on the Pacific coast. habitancy from the city were known to hunt alligators for their hides in the river by swimming stark naked wearing Panama hats on their heads and long knives in the middle of their teeth. When the reptiles open their jaws and go for the swimmer, he dives leaving his hat floating on the exterior for the alligator to chew on while he plunges the knife into the animal's vitals. From The Panama Hat Trail by Tom Miller.]
Bad Hat
I believe this is a French expression for a bad person. [Ludwig Bemelmans' Madeline series of children's books, set in France, includes one Madeline And The Bad Hat. In this story Madeline, our heroine, refers to a tiny boy neighbor as a "bad hat". She clearly means this as a metaphor for a bad man and because I do not know the expression in English, I assume this is a coarse French reference. If whatever out there knows more about this, please drop us an email.]
Hat by Hat
Step by step. [Nevada Barr's book Seeking Enlightenment: Hat by Hat means just that. Has whatever heard this expression otherwise? If yes, please email us.]
Keeping Something Under One’s Hat
Keeping a secret. [People kept prominent papers and small treasures under their hats. One's hat was often the first thing put on in the morning and the last thing taken off at night, so no ifs ands or buts retention things under one's hat was safe keeping. A notable practitioner of this was Abraham Lincoln. The very utilitarian cowboy hat was also generally used for storage.]
Here’s Your Hat, But What’s Your Hurry
When man has taken up adequate of your time and you want him/her to leave. [Origin unknown.]
Carry His Office in His Hat
Operating a company on a shoestring. [Important papers and the like were often carried in one's hat.]
Sets Her Cap
A young lady “sets her cap” for a young man who she hopes to interest in marrying her. [Long ago, maidens wore caps indoors because homes were poorly heated. A girl set her most becoming hat on her head when an eligible fellow came to call.]
Thinking Cap
To put on your “thinking cap” is to give some problem truthful thought. [Teachers and philosophers in the Middle Ages often wore distinctive caps that set them apart from those who had less learning. Caps became regarded as a stamp of education. habitancy put them on (literally or figuratively) to solve their own problems.]
Black Hat . . .
Black hat tactics, black hat intentions, etc. Refer to nefarious actions or designs. [Black hats in Western lore and literature were the bad guys.]
White Hat . . .
Although I don’t see or hear this expression as much as “Black Hat”, it simply is the opposite of the above. [Good guys wore/wear white hats.]

There aren’t many more renowned elements of 1920s fashion then the cloche hat.
The Roaring Twenties were renowned for the masculine affect of designers like Coco Chanel, who’s minute Black Dress revolutionized fashion by “letting go of the waistline.”
Hat
The History of the Cloche
Cloche hats were wildly beloved with the young flapper girls of the 1920s, because they allowed women to tuck their hair up into the hair to give the appearance of having short hair. Short hair not becoming beloved until the middle part of the decade.
Like many of the beloved trademarks of 1920s fashion, the cloche was invented in France by the renowned Parisian milliner (i.e. Hat maker) Caroline Reboux in 1923.
No one knew how beloved this uncomplicated “bell shaped” hat would become.
The deep snug-fitting crown of the hat plus the small brim covered a woman’s head and shield her eyes from the sun, but minimized the radius of the brim that would blow the hat off in the wind.
Materials
Because of the popularity of these hats, they were made from many separate materials so women could wear them throughout the entire year.
Cloches were ordinarily made from satin, silk velvet, rayon faille, horsehair, straw, cotton or felt. In the cold winter months they were often made out of animal furs like mink or brushed “napped” beaver pelt.
The separate Styles
“Cloche” is French named because it is “bell” shaped. There are many varieties of cloche hats, some had wider brims than others, some had feathers, others were totally plain.
Today the separate styles of 1920s hats are often lumped together. Here are some of the separate styles:
Gigolo Hat – Was introduced by Caroline Reboux in 1925, the gigolo hat was named after the “ladies man” of the day. It featured a wide, drooping brim that was irregularly shaped and dipped lower on one side than the other. It also had an irregular crease a the top of the hat.
Reboux was renowned for using minimalistic styles and development them involving through her use of irregular shapes, creases, and hat molding techniques.
Turban – Inspired by the Art Deco movement in 1920s fashion, the turban was also introduced by Reboux and her assistant Mme. Agnes. It featured wraps of fabric colse to a cloche structure, revealing a hat that was both functional and reminiscent of the ancient Egyptian culture that was popularized in the 1920s.
Late 1920s Cloches – As the style progressed fashion designers took it to the limit, stripping the hat down to it’s most minimalistic form. They cut away the front part of the brim and turned it back against the brow, leaving flaps for a woman’s ears and development it look more like a football helmet than a hat.
Famous Hat Designers of the 1920s
1920s fashion is known for its progression from the Victorian Age, the often forgotten milliners who reinvented the hat while the Roaring Twenties were:
Maria Guy, Jane Blanchot, Louisa Bourbon, Suzanne Talbot, Marie Alphonsine, Rose Descat, and of course Paul Poiret.
What Makes 1920s Fashion Special?
These milliners brought the stodgy old fashions of the Victorian Era out of the closet and “made it new.”
Like the rest of 1920s, the fashions moved forward rapidly, replacing the old outdated conventions of the past at an alarming rate. Designers took what community gave them and reinvented new fashions that intimately reflected the new bustling community which surrounded them.

When our family gets together we often play a card game called “65″, It’s something we can all do together because it is easy, fun, and all ages can play. This is a game in which each time a new hand is dealt there is a separate wild card, which means you have to remember which estimate it is each time you look at your hand. Often person will throw the wild card away saying, “It doesn’t fit.”
A part of a run that I do takes me along a highway. Usually cars move a bit to the side as they pass me, and I am always grateful for the courtesy that shows. The other day two cars came zipping down the highway one right after the other. Neither moved. The draft of the wind after they passed blew my hat off.
Hat
My first reaction was irritation. My second was one of awareness. From sense I know that two cars, going fast, one right after another, will cause a wind tunnel. I should have held onto my hat.
We decided that it was time to buy a couch for the family room. After some searching we found the perfect couch, but it was “backward”. We explained to the salesman that we wanted the arms on the couch and lounge the opposite way that was being displayed in the showroom. After much drawing and explaining to him, the salesman wrote down which version of the couch we wanted so we could order the permissible orientation.
We were excited when it arrived, until it was set up in the room. It was backward! In fact it was the same orientation that we originally saw in the showroom. Obviously all the drawing and explaining didn’t get over what we wanted to the salesman. The delivery crew left the couch as a loaner so we could reorder the right orientation.
My first reaction, again, was a itsybitsy feeling of irritation until we looked again. We realized that the orientation of the couch that was delivered worked better than the one we had worked so hard to buy. All the other pieces of the room came together because the wrong couch was delivered.
Because we were willing to re-look at the situation, it turned out to better than the one we had tried so hard to make happen.
This is why intention is so important. If our intention had been to be right, and make the salesman wrong, we would still be waiting to be comfortable in our family room. But, our intention was to make an open intriguing space where everyone would feel welcome and comfortable. This intention allowed the filter of our current way of finding things to widen, letting in more information, and allowing us to see that we already had the perfect couch.
In the card game, if the intention is to have all the cards in order, then it is easy to throw down the card that could win the hand. If the intention is to win the game, we will hold on to what is needed to accomplish this.
It was the intention of the drivers of the car to get somewhere, which may mean they never even saw me. If it was my intention to make them wrong for their intention, I would have only made myself miserable since they were long gone. Instead my intention was to enjoy my run and to learn to keep my hat on my head.
As I write this an “official” giving season has begun. This is a good time to seek our intentions before beginning to buy and spend.
Is the intention to spend a lot of money? Is the intention to give the most costly present? Is the intention to be original? Is the intention to let others know they are loved? deciding our intention first we can avoid being swept up into the worldview that spending money equates with delight and love.
The same thing applies on the other side of giving a gift; receiving a gift. We often throw away a gift because it appears to not fit, or we haven’t seen it for what it truly is. We must be willing to look again. Not with the same personal or worldview that set up the situation, but with an open hearted willingness to know that a gift just might look separate that we expected, and that in itself can be the greatest gift of all.

Whether it is your 1st, or 10th wedding anniversary, it is worth celebrating, and what good way to plan a celebration than with an anniversary party checklist?
The most prosperous anniversary parties start with an idea – how the event will begin, continue and end. Having a finite and concrete party checklist to plan in helps you to keep your wedding anniversary party right on track.
Cab
1. The best thing to do when creating any party is to organize a theme. By creating a theme you can set the mood, location, food ideas and attire as well as invitations. A theme doesn’t need to be fancy; it just needs to be something both you and your spouse / friends are interested in. Some ideas of themes that can be very fun are:
Decade parties – astonishing 50′s, Swingin’ 60′s, Disco 70′s.
Famous Movie Themes – pick a movie you love and originate your theme around it.
High school / Sock Hop
Pool Party
Pig Roast
Western Theme.
2. At this stage you have probably found your theme. Now it is time to originate a guest list for your event. ‘Theming’ your invitations allows you to start the party them off right. Start your invites about three weeks before the event. Ask your guests to be creative and come with the acceptable attire if possible, and encourage them to be creative and have fun. Focus on people you correspond with often, and known people who are fun ‘party people’ (we all know who they are!) I find homemade (Diy) invitations are always more fun than store bought ones; however both do the trick
3. originate your menu. Hunt for serving dishes which correspond to your anniversary party theme. Finger foods are always a hit as they are light, easy to put in order and are a quick clean-up. If you wish for a larger event, organize your food preparing help, or even caress a caterer. originate your grocery list about three weeks before the event.
4. Party decorations are important. They help organize the mood and ambience. Again, we go back to the party theme for ideas here. Lighting is also very important. Hunt for lighting ideas that correspond to the theme i.e. 70′s themed parties should have at least one disco ball to be sure!
5. Games, games and fun stuff! always plan for creative anniversary party games. Spin the bottle, paramount dances and Twister are always a blast. If games are not your thing, reconsider live entertainment -A D.J., live band, comedian all have worked very well in the past.
