2nd - this was a newspaper clipping (I tried to copy and paste but wouldn't work so I just retyped it

KILLER BISCUITS WANTED FOR
ATTEMPTED MURDER
(the actual AP headline)

Lisa Burnette, 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 Lisa's eyes were now open, and she looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay and Lisa replied that she'd been shot in the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in for over an hour. The man called paramedics, who broke into the car because the doors were locked and Lisa refused to remover her hands from her head. When they finally got in, they found that Lisa had a wad of bread dough on the back of her head. A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded from the heat, making a loud sound that 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 until someone noticed and came to her aid. Lisa is blonde.

Me too!!! We are just too smart for our britches, Kasey!
 
I'm a teacher and have to read passages like this all the time! I was surprised that people that don't have to read the writings of 7 and 8 year olds every day could do it too! LOL!
 
Holding her brains in!!:D :D :D I don't have any of those really great emotion thingies that can roll around on the floor or spew stuff out of their mouths, but that is the kind of thing I would have here if I had it!!

Holding her brains in! Classic!:rolleyes:
 
The biscuit story is an old chestnut that has been floating around the Internet for a long time.According to snopes.com, comedienne Brett Butler used the story in her act, purportedly happening to her sister, as far back as 1994. It did not originate with Butler, though, it had been around even before that.It is funny - but it is a joke and not an actual anecdote.
 
And I believe that Mythbusters tested whether tube biscuits will explode in a hot car.Edited to add: Yep, it was on one of the pilots for the show. They did manage to explode a can, but had to really raise the temp of the car to do so.
