Can I bomb my own play to take the trick, or go out that way?

The rulebook FAQ allows bombing your own trick; the fairness pause is a player convention.

Yes — the rulebook allows bombing your own trick. Other players must get a fair chance to bomb first, though: leave a reasonable pause before bombing yourself, since you stand last in the order after your own play. The bomb does not end the trick, so you cannot lead at once.
