the best part about missing carnival 2006 is being able to blog carnival 2006 in real-time. the second best part is probably not getting maimed.

3 killed, dozens injured in Haiti carnival [Reuters]
At least three people died and more than 50 have been injured during carnival festivities in Haiti, which has been plagued by political and gang violence, doctors and witnesses said on Tuesday.

Doctors at the general hospital in the capital said a man and two women died on Monday along the parade route in Port-au-Prince.

A 19-year-old man was killed when a float carrying a musical group ran him over.

um. that's not good news, particularly at 4:30 during a party that lasts well into the night.

in other news, i leave in fourteen hours. good times.

if anyone reading this watches Fox News: let me know if you happen to catch coverage. i'd be interested to know their angle on the story. also i'd be interested to know what the fuck you're doing watching Fox News.
