Has "Mostly Butter" become a reality?
My nephew Zach took this photo at the airport and asked if someone had swiped the "Mostly Butter" business concept I cooked up long ago. I first came up with the "Mostly Butter" idea back in the 1980s, but didn't communicate it in print, so far as I can recall, until 2002 in Bezango WA 985 #5.

As it turns out, the "Butter London" business is apparently for nail polish. Perhaps they should change their name to "Mostly Nail Polish"? Or, "Butter Fingers"?

Bezango WA 985 #5
Rough draft ed., July 18, 2002, 2 copies on white (as opposed to wheat).
1st ed., July 21, 2002, 30 copies (20 red, 10 yellow)
2nd ed., rev. Aug. 14, 2002, 30 copies (3 blue, 18 pink, 9 red)
Print-on-demand for a brief time starting Jan. 23, 2003.1st Danger Room Reprint Ed., June 2005, 5 copies (1 red, 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 blue, 1 pink)
Trivia: I can't remember why the 2nd ed. is revised. Page 5: The TV station was inspired by a little Mom and Pop outfit that broadcast on the other side of the county out of Ocean Shores, Washington about 20 years ago. Page 6: When I revised the 2nd ed. I apparently missed a typo. The second paragraph should start off with: Perky is always waiting for apologies that will never come. Page 8: In college I had a roommate who wore a robe just like this. Page 10: "Mostly Butter" has long been a business dream of mine. Anyone out there willing to invest about 3 million-- please contact me. Page 14: This fellow is sort of composite of about three men I knew. The guy in real life with the bowling league mother didn't brag about the Acuff connection, instead he made it a funny running joke. Page 18: Notice the Washington State University t-shirt.I am not a vegetarian and I like my steaks well done. Burned.
