Lava lamp left on hot stovetop explodes, killing manTuesday, November 30, 2004 Posted: 2:53 AM EST (0753 GMT)

KENT, Washington (AP) -- 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.

"Why on earth he was heating a lava lamp on the stove, we don't know," Kent Police spokesman Paul Petersen said Monday.

After the lamp exploded, Quinn apparently stumbled into his bedroom, where he died Sunday afternoon, authorities said.

Police found no evidence of drug or alcohol use.

You, my friend, have obviously never watched NASCAR by the light of a lava lamp

Really, I wouldn't expect it to explode and send a shard of glass flying fast enough to jab into my heart either. I wouldn't be suprised if it broke, or the cap on top blew off, but to expode? How the hell...

Kent is changing. Theyre building parks and revamping downtown, and building new condos and housing developments.

Yep, in no time at all it will be another stupid cookie-cutter suburb.

In all honesty, the mentally questionable residents and portable housing give Kent its charm. Pacific northwest humor is nothing without it.
