I have decided that the title for this project should be something clever about identical twins.  I was thinking something like “do you know who you are?” or “How to identify yourself” or ‘identical twins and the end of the world’.  I’m leaning towards the last title at this point.  I’ll have to talk to my roommates and see what title they like best and if they have any ideas.  Also, I thought it might be important to mention that although my roommates will be referred to a lot in my article, I will not be using their names or at least I will change them.  Alright, I also need to write a brief introduction.  I have been struggling to come up with ways to hook my reader about identical twins so I think a slightly sarcastic tone might help.

            Have you ever met two identical twins at a party and was immediately fascinated that they look so much alike you can’t imagine telling them apart?  You might ask them something obviously dumb such as, “how do you know that you are you and not your brother.”  You think this is hilarious at the time but they have heard it hundreds of times, and its not funny, trust me.  Be warned by your “hilarious” twin jokes though, because identical twins might just take over the world one day.  When this happens, you don’t want to be the one remembered as making lame twin jokes at the party.
