We wait with our protest sign in hand, sitting quietly on the edge of the fountain. There are so many people here. Some of them were even on the bus with us. There are friendly policemen in fluorescent yellow jackets, near two men playing banjos as a young woman juggles.

So, for the first time ev-ar, since watching some good friends have a blast last year, I'm joining I'm joining LJ Idol!
