What is claimed is: 1. A container assembly comprising: a container body having an upper open end and a lower open end, said upper open end having an upper neck, said lower open end having a lower neck with a rim, said upper neck having a first securing structure, said lower neck having a second securing structure; a bottom cap having a bottom wall and a side wall, said bottom wall having a central portion, a peripheral portion, an outside bottom surface, and a plurality of holes disposed completely through said bottom wall, said central portion being surrounded by said peripheral portion and recessed towards said upper open end, said side wall extending upwardly from said peripheral portion, said side wall having a third securing structure that removably engages with said second securing structure for securing said bottom cap to said container body; and a sealing member being disposed between said rim of said lower neck and said bottom cap when said bottom cap is connected to said container body, wherein said bottom cap is made of a first material, said sealing member is made of a second material, and said second material is flexible, and wherein said sealing member extends through said plurality of holes and protrudes below said outside bottom surface adjacent said plurality of holes and seals said plurality of holes. 2. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said peripheral portion is substantially flat. 3. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said first and second securing structures are threads, wherein said side wall has a surface, and wherein said third securing structure is threads formed on said surface of said side wall. 4. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said second material has a Shore A Hardness about 30 to about 60. 5. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said central portion has a dome-like shape. 6. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said container body has a first outer surface above said lower neck, wherein said side wall has a second outer surface, and wherein said first outer surface is substantially contiguous with said second outer surface when said bottom cap is connected to said container body. 7. The container assembly of claim 6, wherein said side wall comprises an inner wall, an outer wall and a space therebetween. 8. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said container body has a first outer diameter, wherein said upper neck has a second outer diameter, wherein said lower neck has a third outer diameter, and wherein said first outer diameter is larger than said second and third outer diameters. 9. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said bottom cap has a center point, and wherein said plurality of holes is arranged in a circular pattern that is concentrically aligned with said center point of said bottom cap. 10. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said rim has an inwardly extending flange. 11. The container assembly of claim 10, wherein said flange is orthogonal to said side wall. 12. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said sealing member has an upper surface and a lower surface, and wherein said upper and lower surfaces of said sealing member are non-planar. 13. The container assembly of claim 1, wherein said plurality of holes are substantially equi-distantly spaced apart. 14. A container assembly comprising: a container body having an upper open end and a lower open end, said upper open end having an upper neck of reduced diameter, said lower open end having a lower neck of reduced diameter, said lower neck having a rim, said upper neck having first threads, said lower neck having second threads; a bottom cap having a bottom wall and a side wall, said bottom wall having a central portion, a peripheral portion, an outside bottom surface and a plurality of holes disposed completely through said bottom wall, said central portion being surrounded by said peripheral portion and recessed towards said upper open end, said side wall extending upwardly from said peripheral portion, said side wall having third threads that removably connect with said second threads for securing said bottom cap to said container body; and a sealing member being disposed between said rim of said lower neck and said bottom cap when said bottom cap is connected to said container body, wherein said sealing member covers said plurality of holes and is flexible, wherein said sealing member is positioned through said plurality of holes, wherein said bottom cap is made of a first material and said sealing member is made of a second material, wherein a portion of the sealing member extends below said outside bottom surface adjacent said plurality of holes, wherein the container assembly rests on the sealing member when standing up. 15. The container assembly of claim 14, wherein said second material has a Shore A Hardness about 30 to about 60. 16. The container assembly of claim 14, wherein said bottom cap has a center point, and wherein said plurality of holes is arranged in a circular pattern that is concentrically aligned with said center point of said bottom cap. 17. The container assembly of claim 14, wherein said sealing member has an upper surface and a lower surface, and wherein said upper and lower surfaces of said sealing member are non-planar. 18. The container assembly of claim 14, wherein said plurality of holes are substantially equidistantly spaced apart. 19. A container assembly comprising: a container body having an upper open end and a lower open end, the upper open end having an upper neck with first threads, the lower open end having a lower neck with second threads; a bottom cap having side and bottom walls and an elastomeric member, the bottom wall having top and bottom surfaces, the bottom wall having a plurality of holes disposed completely through the bottom wall, the side wall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, the side wall having third threads that removably connect with the second threads for securing the bottom cap to the container body, the elastomeric member being bonded to at least a portion of the top and bottom surfaces of the bottom wall, the elastomeric member being positioned through the plurality of holes, a portion of the elastomeric member extending below the bottom surface of the bottom wall adjacent the plurality of holes, wherein the container assembly rests on the elastomeric member when standing up. 20. The container assembly of claim 19, wherein said bottom cap is formed by a process of molding the bottom wall and molding the elastomeric member onto the bottom wall. 21. The container assembly of claim 19, wherein the bottom cap has a center point, and wherein the plurality of holes is arranged in a circular pattern that is concentrically aligned with the center point of the bottom cap. 22. The container assembly of claim 19, wherein the plurality of holes are substantially equidistantly spaced apart. 23. The container assembly of claim 19, wherein the portion of the elastomeric member extending below the bottom surface of the bottom wall forms a discontinuous gripping layer. 24. The container assembly of claim 19, wherein the portion of the elastomeric member extending below the bottom surface of the bottom wall forms a continuous gripping layer. 25. A container assembly comprising: a container body having an upper open end and a lower open end opposite said upper open end, said lower open end having a lower neck with a rim, said lower neck having first threads; a bottom cap having a bottom wall, a side wall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, and a sealant material, the side wall having second threads that removably connect with the first threads, said sealant material extending through a plurality of holes through said bottom wall, wherein said sealant material protrudes below and above said bottom wall adjacent the plurality of holes. 26.
