Funny Dog Faces at 50 MPH

We all know how dogs love to stick their heads out of the window of a speeding car. Well these dogs like it too and make some hilarious faces while their owner's are speeding down the road at 50MPH. They sure look like they are enjoying themselves.

Alabama, Auburn Battle In NFL Draft

Posted: 08 Apr 2011 09:47 PM PDT

Even NFL betting players had to be impressed at last season's "Iron Bowl", the annual game between Auburn and Alabama in which the Tigers came back from a 24-point deficit to edge the Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa and keep their national-title hopes alive. The two schools are sending a pair of defensive linemen to the NFL's first round, and the player who deemed better in college likely won't be the higher pick.

Auburn's Nick Fairley had a brilliant junior year and won the Lombardi Award, along with the Defensive MVP of the Tigers' BCS title win over Oregon. He didn't have the best combine, though, and only a solid Pro Day is keeping him from slipping outside of the top 10. It appears as though he won't fall any lower than eighth, where Tennessee will pick as they need to fortify their line, and Fairley can play anywhere in a 4-3 scheme. Another factor: new line coach Tracy Rocker was Fairley's mentor at Auburn.

However, Alabama's Marcell Dareus should end up going before Fairley for a few reasons. He seems to have a better work ethic than Fairley, who is explosive but takes plays off. Dareus is also decorated as he was the Defensive MVP of Alabama's 2010 BCS title win over Texas, and like Fairley he can play all over the line, but he's bigger. Dareus can also play in either a 3-4 or 4-3 system, while Fairley is more suited to the 4-3, so that should help him out. Denver has the second pick and they've pinpointed the defensive line as their major need, so it wouldn't surprise us if the Broncos snagged Dareus, who had an excellent combine. While Fairley may have more upside, Dareus is ready to play right now.

Two Toilet Pranks

These are two great ideas for funny office pranks. The guys in this office took their time to unusually decorate the women toilet. The effect was achieved immediately. At first, women wispered curse words. Then they started to get indignant and at last they compained to their boss about it.

Chinese Fake Hard Drive

One guy brought this failed 500Gb hard drive to service center because of some problems. When workers of the center opened it they were very surprised, because there was... 128 Mb flash drive inside instead of the 500GB hard drive. The man explained that he bought this fake Samsung HDD in a Chinese store. Be careful what you buy.
