  • Hi James, Nice to be mistaken for you~!!! How can we hook up? I have a story for you that's greater in Fact than anything Grisham could write in fantasy. See the 1982 Pulitzer for Journalism..., I lived through it..., The Navy's still punishing me. Sherry Spillan at the Ruth Web Agency in Beverly Hills is waiting for me to get a story written. Good Luck, Jim Thornton

  • Jimmy Tango! Thanks for the very kind wishes. You write about magazine journalism in the past tense, so I assume you eventually moved on to something more lucrative and less painful. It is you, sir, who are the true winner! No more gigantic nobs on the forehead from where you repeatedly hammered your head in response to your editor's criticisms! Best of luck to you in 2009, as well. If you are a Facebook member, please befriend me, James Scott Thornton in Pittsburgh!

  • My name is James Thornton too and I was a magazine journalist too. I never ever got nominated for any awards so congratulations on being the best magazine journalist called James Thornton. You may be a three-time loser but I, or any of the other writers called James Thornton could never get near you. Good luck for 2009!!!

  • I had a school friend who was a three time loser. They sent him to jail for life. They finally change the law a let him go after serving nearly 45 years.

  • well, the important thing is that they're recognizing your good work.

  • As Ed Wood himself might have put it, "PERFECT!"
