Here's the problem:

I have a friend coming up to visit me here in Windsor from Texas. While up here, I want her to have some "Canadian" experiences. I'm going to bring her to Charles Clark Square for skating and Boxing Day shopping. We'll try sledding at Suicide Hill and making snow angels if the weather cooperated (She's never SEEN SNOW before!)

Does anyone else have some suggestions of things we can do while she's up here?

Are there any places in Windsor that buy used books?
I've seen sites online that buy used books and pay for the shipping, but they're US only and/or give website credits.

Any places in Windsor that offer pole dancing classes? My older sister and I are looking into taking a few classes over the Christmas break. Prices?

Thanks

**FINAL EDIT Thu Dec 10 02:15:47 UTC 2009**

So there is the final update... Over the past day we have processed around 11 million jobs out of the 12 million that were in queue at that time. Please bear in mind that over this past day, more jobs for notifications are also created. So while the queue has been dropping, we are still not fully caught up at this point, due to backlog and new jobs. We have roughly 3 million jobs still pending that involve the notification system in some manner. We had hoped we could have fully cleared the queue in a day, but unfortunately we can't clear it too quickly, since we need the rest of the site to operate normally. From our current perspective on the amount of jobs that are left in queue, and how many it has processed thus far, we believe it will take around another 8 - 12 hours to process everything.

And finally some answers to some questions:

The world of beer is expanding, in both flavor and appeal. Craft brewing has taken the beer-drinking community to new heights and innovations. The time to learn about, explore, enjoy, and appreciate this sacred beverage has never been more exciting. But how does it all break down? How can one begin to decipher the differences between styles and sub-categories of beer? How can anyone truly appreciate beer without a basic understanding of beer’s ingredients and flavor profiles?

Have no fear, LifeEpicurean’s Beer Battles: 101 series will break down basic concepts such as the difference between ales and lagers, highlights of various beer styles, proper pouring and tasting process, and the appropriate glassware for different brews. Pay attention-–class is in session. READ MORE HERE.
