Vince Shank celebrated his 90th birthday this past weekend with
a surprise party at the Las Vegas Hilton. Family and friends from many
decades joined in the festivities. As I lined up the photo of the head
table, something seemed eerily familiar . . . and it involved Vince as
well, or, at least, da Vinci ("Vince" in Italian).

of the entire occasion:
