Woman shot by oven while trying to cook waffles
By M. Alex Johnson, staff writer, NBC News
An 18-year-old Florida woman was only slightly injured this week when she was shot by her friend's oven, police said.
Aalaya Walker was visiting a friend in St. Petersburg Monday when they decided they wanted some late-night waffles, The Tampa Bay Times reported. So Walker began preheating the oven — unaware that her friend, JJ Sandy, 25, was storing a magazine from his .45-caliber Glock 21 in the oven.
The magazine exploded about 9 p.m. ET, spraying casing fragments at high speed and striking Walker. She managed to pick some of the fragments out of her leg and chest and then took a bus to the hospital, where she was treated and released.
told police he'd stored the gun in a drawer but had stored the magazine in the oven. Four rounds were in the 13-capacity magazine, he said.
Gun and ammunition references indicate that Glock bullets can explode at temperatures as low as 280 degrees — or even lower if they've been exposed to heat for a long time, which can degrades the structure.
Sandy "stated that he does not have a temperature gauge on the oven so he estimates the temperature based on how far the knob is turned," according to the police report, which was obtained by the Times. "I observed that the inside of the oven was damaged."
In a memorable 2007 episode, the popular science TV show "Mythbusters" found in several experiments that bullets can explode "once the oven was hot enough."
"Without a gun barrel to contain and direct the propellant gases, the bullets did not develop enough speed to pierce the glass or steel portions of the oven. The shell casings actually caused more damage than the bullets," it found — essentially reproducing what police said happened Monday.
Sandy wasn't charged because he had a proper concealed weapons permit, The Tampa Tribune reported.
So anxious about Monday. I should be more excited for St. Thomas on Saturday, but I found out today that Metallica's festival, Orion Music and More will finally announce the line-up as well as information about the tickets on Monday, February 25. For those who don't know, the festival will be in Detroit, Michigan. I've been waiting for this for awhile. I can't remember the last time I was excited for a Monday.
everyone thought it would be a snow day but it isnt - so i am the only one at work right now -- i am here but haven't really done anything but turn the lights on and make coffee. That has taken an hour and a half

they were closing schools here last night around 8pm when not a single flurry had fallen. :fp:
we ended up with about 3-4 inches and the roads were pretty much clear by the time the busses normally start rolling. :fp: :fp: :fp: :fp:

The pics where Eddie looks hot thread is closed for review :shock:
did you read the last couple of pages, got kind of weird.
wow...just wow.
Ah yes, I agree it did get a little weird there but to lock the whole thing would be a disappointment. I know I may get slammed for stating openly but i loved that thread! It was way more than a bunch of pretty pics! It was a fun thread where we laughed among people I have come to view as friends. Everyone was supportive of each other in our daily struggles. I know sometimes it took a wrong turn here and there but we were usually able to bring it back to a respectful place where we just admired someone we adore and got to know each other...
And no one ever "put me on ignore" there. Wish we could get a slap on the wrist and reopen. Almost 1000 pgs!

Hehe! I started a butch about our thread being locked
Thread.. Called Well that fucked up my morning!
That'll get locked too I bet!! Unlike the first thread, which
Accidentally helped get locked, I was asleep when this
one happened! So upset right now! It was more than just
A place to stare at an unbelievably beautiful person, but
it was also like a little family of support in there.! We all
talk each other down from our anger, lift each other
up from our sorrows, and are just THERE for one another
in general. I've made some really neat friends in there, that
Are genuinely warm and kind people. Sure hopewe don't
have to start over!

If we can't have a "nice rack" or maybe a "flip cup" thread then it's only fair.
