Vancouver Papers: Come Sail Away

24hours-sailing.jpg
24 Hours cover pages are genuis. Huge headline: "Serial slasher loose". Huge photo story: "Now that's mobility" - the story of sailboats and the 2006 Mobility Cup. So while you're humming a Yacht Rockish classic like Styx's "Come Sail Away". Why put the happy sailboats below the serial slasher story. Why?

The Sun is still acting like a real newspaper this morning - more somber 9/11 remembrances and recaps, and a real investigation on sensitive government tapes that are still missing, and more in the Quest sex scandal. And the Canucks resigned Trevor Linden yesterday. Is it not too much to ask to learn some more about the Jill Crop and Gordon Campbell affair rumours - no wonder he doesn't want a fall legislative session.

The Province offers up the cover to car thieves: "It's payback time for car thieves". I'm all in favor of slapping the hell out of car theiving douchebags, but you'd think the province could find a person who had an actual valuable car stolen, not the 23-year-old kid who's "restored 1979 Oldsmobile Cutlass, willed to him by his late granny". Oh, please. They put the slasher story on a4. Meanwhile ageless 36-year-old and 7 goal-scorer Trevor Linden is going to help teach us to laugh again, apparently.
