A week ago, we noted the continuing attractiveness of Argentina as a vacation destination not only for tourists but also for the odd war criminal and fugitive. A few days before that, we'd had dinner with Colin McMahon and Matthew McAllester, foreign correspondents for the Chicago Tribune and New York Newsday, respectively. Both were planning a trip to Mendoza to get a deathbed interview with the Serb fugitive Nebojsa Minic. Since then, their stories came out (here and here) and Minic died of complications related to AIDS. Besides being gripping recounts of their tense interview with him, his crimes, and his fugitive trek, the stories expose something of comic awfulness: one night when a drunk Minic, then using an assumed name, attempted to brag to his Argentine girlfriend of his real identity and former crimes, he tried but failed to dredge up stories of his crimes on the web. Man, learn how to Google. [Photo of Minic from Marcos Garcia/Los Andes]
