Le tour de la question

A few days ago, some guy base-jumped from the Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower). Again. Which is a good opportunity to cover:
une tour = a tower. Not to be confused with:
un tour = a turn / revolution / round. E.g.:
la Terre fait un tour sur elle-même en 24 heures = the Earth rotates once in 24 hours
faire le tour de quelquechose = to go around something
allons faire un tour = let's go for a walk
chacun son tour = each one in his turn
faire le tour de la question = to cover a problem/question.
This is also the title of MC Solaar's live album and my recommendation of the day.
