Web Developer Bears Uncanny Resemblance
VinCenzo's latest hire, a web developer tasked with producing Cenzo.com, has been drawing a certain amount of suspicion. Though in his sixth month with the company, employees and customers are beginning to notice certain similarities between the developer, Dominic Armato, and the company's CEO, Keith Armato.
"At first I didn't think anything of it, but now I'm really starting to wonder," said Chuck McSlow, another VinCenzo employee. "I mean, when Dom first started, sure, I noticed they had the same last name, but everybody knows there are more Armatos than Smiths these days, so I didn't really think twice."
Coincidence... or Conspiracy???
In addition to the fact that they share the same last name, the two developed an "unusually good rapport" as quickly as the first day, according to some. "Personally, I thought 'Dad' was just one of those new-fangled computer industry slang terms for boss," said Linda Tripped. "Those web guys have their own words for practically everything."
Also, many expressed that the two look quite similar, though some begged to differ, including Joe Astigma. "No, they don't look anything alike. Well, I mean, their faces are kind of shaped the same, but that's about it. And I suppose the eyes are pretty much alike. That and they smile the same way, I suppose. But that's it... and the beard, of course, and hair color. Oh, and they both have those Sicilian hands, and... hey... now that you mention it, they do look kind of alike!"
When asked to comment on the alleged connection, Dominic replied, "What? Didn't everybody know?"
Investigators continue to take statements, and insist that an answer is forthcoming.
