yikes!

There's an ex-Nazi down the street!

That was the big story here today and even nationally.... that an ex-Nazi SS commander, accused of horrible atrocities during World War II, has been living all these years in northeast Minneapolis.   His neighbors are of course saying stuff like -- "What?  and here he was such a nice church-going model citizen!"

And the guy, if he is even coherent at age 94, will of course deny any wrong-doing and he'll probably die before anything is ever proved, but I'm thinking how interesting it would be to hear his real unsanitized true story.... not the Nazi part of it, which would be repulsive .. but how the heck he made it across the ocean and managed to convince authorities that he wasn't a war criminal and then fit so comfortably into American life.
