$B!H(BWilling to die for Haiti$B!G(Bs liberation$B!I(B

Once upon a time, Haiti was facing a great political crisis. Different
political parties and organizations got together to think about the best way
to get out of the crisis. They have met for several days, discussing the
issue. Finally, someone came up with an answer that pleased everyone:
$B!H(BI am willing to die for Haiti$B!G(Bs liberation and we
won$B!G(Bt have anymore problem.$B!I(B When the whole country heard the
good news, gee! Everyone wanted to see that Haitian fellow who was not
afraid of dying for Haiti's liberation. He appeared on TV, had interviews
with journalists, they heard him on the radio... telling his willingness to
die to liberate Ayiti Cheri. He decided to die on Friday (around 3 p.m) and
told reporters how he would commit suicide. He would start running from
Portail Saint-Josesph to Carrefour. There, he would jump in a deep part of
the sea where sharks hang around. So since he couldn$B!G(Bt swim, you'd
think that was real. No joke, hm! The whole Port-au-Prince city came down to
Boulevard Jean-Jacques Dessalines to watch that Haitian hero-to-be. Everyone
was clapping their hands: yeah! Go! Go! Go for Haiti's liberation! Go for
it! We$B!G(Bre proud of you, son of Dessalines, Toussaint,
Christophe$B!D(B! He was like someone running in an international
marathon, representing Haiti and he was wearing the colors of the flag (blue
and red), symbolizing "hope and victory". Upon arrival in Carrefour where he
was supposed to jump, the crowd got intensified, 'cause everyone of course,
was curious to see that hero. Before hitting the finish line, he said: "I am
too hot to jump in the water; I may catch a chill".

While I was Carrefour watching the whole scene, someone kicked me in the --
and I landed on Corbett Land to share that story with you.
