I actually saw this on the David Letterman show but my mom found this article in the Newspaper and was reading it to me cause she didn't realize David Letterman had it on as part of the small town news. I thought this might brighten someones day maybe :biggrin:.
(the actual AP headline as it appeared in 1999)
Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of San Diego, was visiting her in-laws, and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Several people noticed her sitting in her car with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back of her head. One customer who had been at the store for a while became concerned and walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda's eyes were now open, and she looked very strange.
He asked her if she was OK, and Linda replied that she'd been shot in the back of the head, and had been hodling her brains in for over an hour. The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Linda refused to remove her hands from her head. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head. A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the head, making a loud noise taht sounded like a gunshot, and the wad of dough hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find out what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She initially passed out, but quickly recovered and tried to hold her brains in for over an hour unitl someone noticed and came to her aid.
