Don't try this at home

Did I promise I would go back to real news and meat and potatoes posts after jury duty? I will. Really.

In the meantime I bring you this from KATU in Portland:

KENT, Wash. - A man who placed a lava lamp on a hot stovetop was killed when it exploded and sent a shard of glass into his heart, police said. Philip Quinn, 24, was found dead in his trailer home Sunday night by his parents.
