Dunedin Cosmetic Dentist and the Headless Hitler.

Sounds like a bad take off on a Sleepy Hollow Novel, doesn't it? Yup, after vacation I am back and blogging.

So Madame Toussaud's opened in Berlin. The second visitor decapitated the wax Hitler screaming, "No more war!".

The museum was asked to consider the Hitler display's appropriateness. The museum said Hitler was a major part of Berlin's history and should not be excluded. Good on ya Madame, because I'm not a fan of art censorship.

I do think the museum acted with the appropriate sensitivity. Hitler was not made accessible for photos and intermingling, as the other wax statues in the museum were. Hitler was also depicted watching a map of advancing allied forces.

However, I do understand the emotional reaction the would-be executioner had. Hitler's actions unleashed decades of damage and division among the German people. Anyone who lived on the wrong side of the wall has good reason to be bitter.

This is an interesting situation to me. I'm curious to see what happens when Hitler is repaired and sent back to his display. Will more Berliners (no, not jelly donuts), be angered to violence against the statue? Will people simply choose to not visit the display?

Anyhow, in my office we don't keep wax figures of deceased tyrants, just waxed models of teeth. So call us at 727.733.1175 or visit us at www.allaboutsmiles.org to get your FREE Exam and Xrays. That's right, FREE exam and xrays just for reading this blog! See you tomorrow!
