My suggestion would be ... to rent an apartment for the wknd. You can find many through a quick search. Some are through hotels or B&B's but others are just individually owned apartments. I remember seeing a gorgeous three bedroom loft apartment in the Plateau area for a reasonable rate...

Block and Deny First, contact your phone company and ask them to block any unidentified or blocked calls from coming through. Second, deny, deny, deny and deny some more. After all, who's your wife going to believe? Her husband or some schmuck on the phone who doesn't even know your...

Self edit: Trust to your movies, Eager Beaver. I'm sorry I defiled the memory of your beloved hero.

Firewire Just keep in mind that the topic was self-defense for women. For the most part, they are going to be outweighed 2 to 1 by their assailant. They are going to be substantially weaker and smaller and in an enclosed space where speed is going to be a nonfactor. Imagine going into a...

Last word I don't want to get into a debate about what is an "effective" technique to use against an assailant. Next thing we know, we'll get into a discussion about what martial art is the best and if Charles Bronson could kick Bruce Lee's butt. :rolleyes: I'll just say that if any...

By all means Be confident. But also be smart. There's no shame in walking away from possible trouble.

I have some experience with self-defense courses although I have not taught it in a while but FYI: FIRST, self-defense is a very different animal from martial arts. I've known rank beginners who would be a bear in a fight and very high ranking martial artists who could not fight their way...

If you prefer a nicer place, try Alexander's on Peel St, Downtown area and L'Express on St. Denis (I believe). Both are French bistro's.

If your former favorites were the Vogue and the Germain, you will like the Nelligan and the Place d'Armes. However, they are in Old Montreal, although the staff are very accomodating :) Downtown, you might check out the Sofitel (one caveat - if you use priceline or hotwire, my...
