Welcome to the Ramblings of Mr Bump. I am Mr Bump, this is my blog, these are my words, and this is how I see "it" all from the kitchen table at the Bump House.
Hot Summer 2010 - 112 Degrees - Baltimore, MD
July 23rd, 2010Today is Friday July 23, 2010 and after a really hot week (upper 90's all week) driving through the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel on the way back from the BWI Airport I looked up and saw 112 on my Jeep's outside temperature gauge. Wow, 112, my daughter took the picture as we have never seen the temp guage go that high before. My nephew Justin and his girlfriend Erin where up from Florida for the week and commented that it is HOT AS HELL here in Baltimore! Well, here is the proof as outside temperatures where around 99 degrees today, inside the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel (895) it was 112 this was around 7PM. Anyway, thought I would share these record breaking temps with the net. Do I like it? Love it!
The Most Interesting Man in the World
June 30th, 2010Who is the real Most Interesting Man in the World? Could it possibly be Mr. Bump? He has been known to have negotiated multi-billion dollar deals on Park Place and Boardwalk. Some people refer to him as the "doer", he just doesn't say he is going to do something, he actually does it. He has been seen dining with some of the most beautiful women in the world like his daughter. When confronted with a crisis he immediately takes charge unlike our president. He will always "keep you posted". He can cook a hamburger and make sun tea all by himself. He can even make fart noises with his right hand under his arm pit. He never shops at Walmart even though he owns Walmart stock. When he was a child he learned how to swim in the family backyard sprinkler. Even as a young adult he was able to master the art of negotiating his way down a busy sidewalk. Mr. Bump does not claim to be a doctor or lawyer, neither does he play one on TV. Mr. Bump is truly the Most Interesting Man in the World.

Nordstrom Gift Card Sold on eBay in under 5 Minutes
April 16th, 2010Wow, I can hardly believe it. Today, I helped a friend at work list a $50 Nordstrom Gift Card on eBay as a Buy It Now item for $45 with free shipping. Within 5 minutes it sold, unbelievable! I figured it would take at least a few hours since there were other Nordstrom $50 gift cards with bids as high as $47.
Anyway, I would assume that the buyer was snipping out gift cards when this one was listed and scopped it up immediately. I didn't even have time to BUMP IT on www.AuctionBump.com before it sold. Not Cool!
2010 High Gas Prices? Where is the Media Outrage?
April 15th, 2010Once again gas prices are climbing near or above the $3 mark. Where is all the outrage? Water cooler, no outrage... check, pumping gas, no outrage... check, newspapers, media, congress-critters, no outrage... check. Hum, I wonder why... the silence???
If I recall when George W Bush was our president and prices were about the same, there was non-stop media coverage about the high gas prices. You couldn't pump gas without noticing others shaking their heads at the pump. You couldn't even tap the water cooler at the office without the subject of high gas prices coming up in conversation. Even our congress-critters where shown non-stop on TV demanding lower prices. So what is different this time?
The difference now is that the media is covering for our dear leader Obama. You see, dear leader gets a pass on everything from the liberal media including... yes high gas prices. That is the difference IMO.
