Volume 1, Number 3 -- October, 1996



Three's a Charm!

 Hey there, SCROOM-o-philes! Welcome home!

 We've got it going again! The recent Richard Allen Davis sentencing here in California has sparked a debate on capital punishment between our own Dave Lind and Dean Shutt. Check out both sides, and don't forget to give us your opinion - you can mail it to us at editors@scroom.com, or put your two cents in to our new Rant Page.

 On a slightly lighter note, our fearless gonzo reporter has braved the wilds of Alcatraz, and come back to tell the tale.

 Skippy has a full description of people that piss him off. And if that isn't enough vitriol for you, check out the View From the Cheap Seats, where Dave bitches about the '49ers. Our very own sports god, The Professor, digs into his mailbag to answer a few questions, in his own inimitable style, of course.

 For the musically minded, we have unearthed a brief history of one of the greatest jazz musicians to have ever lived, and who left far too soon. Check out Jaco.

 Our poetry page this time includes two new poets, Sara, and Ben (and Ben Again!). Check 'em out!

 We've been REAL busy lately, so instead of a regular BackPage, we send you back in time, to an old favorite - lawyer jokes! These have been mined from our pre-history - the Drunk Tank's Lawyers Joke Page!

 Now, don't forget, we're always looking for new talent. So send us something already!

May it be SCROOMed into you...
the SCROOMtimes staff
