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

  5. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
    my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get
    set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100% positive.

    Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kudos
