    Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my
    iphone and tested to see if it can survive a 40 foot drop,
    just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple
    ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with
    someone!

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for
    your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
