    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which

    The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my
    iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83
    views. I know this is completely off topic but
    I had to share it with someone!
