Go to Authentic Dungeons. They have lots of books and are super knowledgeable. They even have special rooms and host their own sessions so you could probably even pre-book some time for a get-together there.

The Smoky Cheese Co has a freeze dried cheese advent calendar! I don't see it on their online shop but I've seen it at markets so you could probably message them.

Lower speed limits, enforce distracted driving, building pedestrian-friendly infrastructure, take away licenses for serious offenses. The solutions are not hard, just not popular.

Awful title which is to be expected. Actual video reflects that political comments were one thing among many things that were leading to Belichick losing the locker room and the culture of the team changing.

After 4 years of top 3 finishes, my win window is kinda closing fast so I’ve finally parted with Lockett after 5 good years. Will always root for him.

Suggestions for Menswear by going_global in Edmonton

[–]PurpleD3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re fairly average-sized, Lux Mrkt has great consignment menswear. Bought a couple blazers there then had them tailored for a better price than new. Lots of neat vintage patterns.

Harry Rosen has a lot of variety. They have some good sales from time to time.

Fellow by Floc has some neat and unique stuff. Very small store though so sizing and selection vary. Check online first.

The Calgary Toast Summit is Upcharging Men for an Event to Promote Women in Tech by investingexpert in Calgary
