This is the same copy shop you've mentioned before? That's definitely on the eerie side.

Yes, the same one.

I never paid much attention to the people in Best Copy
I knew they were Middle Eastern,
but they seemed normal
in comparison to many of the people around here
women in burkhas, etc.
At times, the area resembles Jalalabad.

The other nearby Copy shop is run by Tamils,
and it, too, was surrounded by police cars a few weeks back.

In addition to Al Qaeda, the Tamil Tigers also operate big time in Toronto.

Here is a little more background on Al-Marabh:

Al-Marabh's pet parrot is what brought him
to the attention of U.S. police.
The parrot was also a mascot
at the downtown copy shop.

Earlier this year,
a Detroit roommate blamed Al-Marabh
and his parrot
for their messy apartment.

The roommate threw a TV remote control
that hit Al-Marabh
in the face
and charged at him
with a samurai sword.

Al-Marabh,
who pulled a small knife
from his cellphone,
pleaded guilty to assault
and was given a year's probation.
