Odd choice of words, Arnie. In parts of the states (the northern mid-west and maybe others) a "bump" is a shot of whiskey. I've heard that it's fairly commom for a Wisconsinite (word?) or a Minnesotian (ditto?) to go into a bar and order "a beer and a bump," meaning a shot of the hard stuff with a beer chaser.
It would seem then that a "bump" is the last thing this thread might need.
