BUMPS 46

Yet another Chrysler LeBaron convertible showed up with an interesting plate. An attractive woman was getting into this shiny black car with the plates BUMPS 46. This was in the parking lot of my favorite discount store in the world (really), Wal*Mart, so I didn't have to contend with red lights changing to green, etc. and I was able to conduct an in-depth interview.

It seems that she was quite a tomboy when she was little. She was always hurting herself and breaking her bones. So much so (she broke her arm twelve times) that her Dad nicknamed her "Bumps" and that has stayed with her throughout her life. She said that it was a little awkward during her teenage years, but as so often happens with our childhood nicknames, it never went away. Her husband passed away some time ago, and her daughters got the license for her a couple of years later in an effort to cheer her up. It was easy to see that she was touched by the gesture.
