Before someone pulls Will's leg because of the usage of the word "bottom",
let me explain that this is how the imported term "button" is pronounced in
Brazil. Sometimes (as it s the case here) it gets spelled like it sounds,
and we get in trouble. A long time ago, while trading pins and buttons with
fellow Rotary exchange students in Canada, I managed to make quite an ass of
myself by saying "here, have my bottom" to an Australian. Sad, isn't it?
