No. 31 / 1998



It is wonderful to reach 'that most Scarlet time of the year' with the coming of what many like to refer to as SHOCK-tober!  Around the midwest, however, you'd never have known it up until now because we not only had record high temperatures, our final day of the heatwave just two days ago was the warmest day (this Autumn) that we had all Summer!  (There is no global warming, however, and don't let a few record breaking hurricanes this year try to persuade you otherwise.  Hoo-boy!)

In any case, let this latest post help get us into the mood of that time of year when we can all just be ourselves and enjoy the season that starts with Halloween.  As I like to do it, this is just the beginning, as I'll be back again just before the upcoming holiday with another great issue posting of Scarlet Street!  For now, here's Issue #31...and it's lots of fun!
