The Largest Drain Hole In The World
Where? Located in northern California, the Monticello Dam’s is the largest morning glory spillway all over the world. This funnel-shaped outlet, allows water to bypass the dam when it reaches capacity, as it swallows a rate of 48,400 cubic feet per second (1370 m³/s).
The distance from the funnel to the exit point – which is situated in the south side of the canyon – is about 700 feet.
This type of spillway is basically a giant cement funnel. The hole’s largest diameter is 72 feet and narrows to about 28 feet.
According to Davis Wiki,
for obvious reasons, swimming near the glory hole is both prohibited and stupid. There are buoys strung across the lake to discourage boaters and swimmers from approaching the glory hole and the dam. Furthermore, the glory hole is well fenced off from the land.
Finally, you can take a look at the hole on Google Maps.

12 Things Idiots Do On Friendster!
This probably quite true as I’ve seen a few of these! Here we go…
ONE
There is NO SUCH THING as a friendster tracker. It does NOT exist. So quit posting stupid bulletins like
“who views your profile the most” or
“OMG this works!!!”
Sorry but NO, it doesnt work!
TWO
Those who owned a lot friendster accounts.
What is the point of adding the same friend? Stop doing stupid things like sending lots of same repeated message on bulettin with the subject “ADD ME!!”
THREE
Don’t ever post pictures and say:
“OMG, I’m so ugly”
“OMG, I’m so fat”
because if you were, you wouldn’t post them.
And if you do you’re a freaking mongoloid.
