Me: I'll have a no-fat, no-foam latte, please.
Them: Perfect! Would you like something to eat with that?
Me: No.
Them: Perfect!

I hate it.

A woman with a sign "I regret my abortion."

Someone from PETA is dressed as a seal, carrying a sign that reads "hug me, don't club me." I did neither.

And the Falun Gong lady is here. All is well.

One excited woman shouted into her cell phone "I SAW HIS HAND!!!"

Ottawa-Centre MP Paul Dewar is here. He showed me a photo he took on his Blackberry. One big blur. "I won't quit my day job," he says.

[Bruce Deachman @Deachman]

I asked the guy selling signs if he wants to see Obama. He said he wants to see lots of five-dollar bills.
