Thanks for sharing that version, Guest 21 Jan 09 - 11:07 AM.

In case someone else besides me needed this information, because the word "clout" was unfamiliar to me, I looked its meaning up online. Apparently it means clout "a blow, especially with the fist". And "bum" as used here means "butt".

[Which goes to show you that "English" English isn't always the same as "American" English]
