Shaking of the fist

Incidentally, I love that the address for this collection is "fistshakingstories," as so many of Tom's best stories/rants included, at some point, a fist thrust up and waved in the air (often accompanied by some form of guttural ARG!)

targets that I can specifically recall:
- Nan Keohane, Bill Burig, Nan's Chilly Bivalve
- the Hideaway
- terrorists
- politicians
- rain
- sunshine
- God
- beer
- virtually every non-Chicago baseball team
- Chicago baseball teams, including virtually every individual player and manager by name
- at one point, even the Chicago Cubs batboy (though not, to my knowledge, by name)



- check that... pretty much every sports team to ever make TV or print that he watched or read...

- fraternities (plus PhiDelt GHQ)... especially PhiDelt GHQ...
- women (other than Krista)



- Krista and most fraternity brothers, but definitely only in jest

...(mostly) definitely...
