i am a 25 year old guy, not bad looking if i do say so myself, little rough around the edges but have a good, honest and loyal heart.

P.S.

Uggly Grammar...

From Fbook...

From 27th of november to 4th of december we decided that to be the UGG boots week.

To make this even more special we are giving away 1000 pairs of brand new UGG boots on a daily basis.

We are doing this because we want to make this event more and more popular every year on the same week.

The other thing why we are giving away boots is that we want to spread our brand across the globe and we think good word of mouth is the best promotion we can possibly have.

"The turn out to be 'matches'." The should be They
"Regarding the mechanical process of sticking the pieces together as a principle." Doesn't this leave you asking, what? what? what?
"Abut 1860, Cook and Bonnelli, who had developed a device called a photobioscope, predicted a 'complete revolution of photographic art'." About....
"And he seemd anxious to avoid any personal interference with the given data." Why is it okay to delete letters? Abut, seemd?
