Keith,

   This one is too easy.

   The bracket flew to join its brother, the thing you lost in the  
attic years ago. I am sure you will find the bracket as soon as you  
find the thingie.

The story reminds me of the "other" name for circlips.  A few years  
ago a buddy was working on his car in my garage and removed a circlip  
using pliers or a screwdriver -- but not the correct tool.  As the  
clip went flying to parts unknown he said to me "That's why they're  
called "Jesus Clips" -- 'cause when you work with them they fly away  
and you say "Jesus, where'd that thing go?"
