Donatello Turns 40
The day has finally arrived—YHC turned 40. Typically Birthdays do not phase me, it’s just another day. I have to confess, however, that 40 feels a little different. It’s a significant milestone. Statistically—I’ve lived half my life. Of course with my family gene pool, that may be generous. My initial
