Eugene McCarthy

Today is Eugene McCarthy’s 90th birthday. It’s also my 34th birthday. MPR broadcast a retrospective on McCarthy’s life today on my midday commute to my accountant’s office. Death, taxes, birthdays, politics, and two men named Eugene (that’s what the E in pek stands for). I found the stories about the Vietnam vets’ interactions with McCarthy to be especially moving.
