Well, she didn't cut it on purpose, although that would have
made a more interesting story. I'm always interested in people who jab their eyes with shards of glass on purpose, but
in this instance it was simply a matter of a light bulb exploding on the set of Desperate Housewives and glass
getting into Teri Hatcher's eye and scratching her cornea. This could have been serious, of course, but she's
apparently in good condition after visiting an eye doctor, save for the eye patch she has to wear. Not many people know
this, but exploding light bulbs actually kill twenty million people every year. It is second only to being hit in the
head by a potato while riding a bicycle. Really, check any medical journal.glass-related stories

This is just too bizarre for words. (But that isn't
stopping me from blogging about it, of course!)A woman bought a flat screen television, and it came to her house (with a remote control and a cord)...but it turns out, the "flat screen television" was in reality the glass door from a large oven!
The first tip off should have been the price: $300 (marked down from $500). As a public service, here are some other items that people might try to pass off as flat screen TVs. Please beware:
- car windshields
- glass coffee table tops
- the window from your living room
