Explosions?

The oven exploded today.

Not into a fiery ball, thank goodness. More like a gaseous 'poof'. We think there is something wrong with the broiler. You see, I thought I was going to broil the mini-bagel-pizza's, then decided to just bake them. I turned off the broiler and remembered that my mom had told me they had a near-explosion when switching quickly from one to the other, so I waited. Obviously didn't work, because I hear a loud "whoosh' and turned to see the oven door slam shut. Needless to say, we are calling a repair man AND ceasing use of the broiler until further notice.

All is well, and I am enjoying my mini-bagel-pizza's while my children 'clean' their rooms so they can eat.
