BISCUITS WANTED FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER (the actual AP headline)

Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of San Diego , was visiting her in-laws, and
while there she 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 okay, and Linda
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 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 heat, making a loud
noise 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.

Linda is a blonde, but
I'm certain that's irrelevant

Her poor husband , having to eat his dinner without biscuits.

This was actually proven in the 2nd pilot of the TV show Mythbusters on Discovery Channel. The myth was proven "Plausible" as Jamie & Adam were able to get some cans of biscuit dough to explode if the car interior got hot enough.

Kind of reminds me of a sister-in-law I once had.

I think I dated her.
