**Spoons** : I called that 1-800 number. They were bumpin’ sold out. They had a few nudges and some leftover elbows, but no more bumps. ---

Thanks, folks. Credit where credit is due, though: it was inspired by **Panache** ’s “Super Bump,” directly above. At any rate, it was fun to bump my way through. Glad that you liked it! Wonder what I can bump up next…? ---

I met with my accountant today. We were at either end of a conference table as she explained my tax return. As she bumped the paperwork down towards me, she said, “Oh, just in case you don’t understand it, let me sum it up: you get a refund.” Woo-hoo! Bumpin’ happy here! ---

Well, once I deduct her fees from the amount of the refund, I have enough left over for a nice basket of groceries. But hey, that’s an amount I didn’t have before, so still good news! Oh, and bump. ---

Hey, to celebrate, I’m doing the bump here, in response to disco music. Unfortunately, the only creature I have to bump with is the cat, and he’s not liking it. I’ll stop now and leave the cat alone, but I’m a happy guy tonight. Thanks, folks! ---
