These are a few of the books by Thornton W. Burgess that I got from my parents when I was a kid. These editions were published in the 40s, but were originally written as early as 1910.According to Wikipedia, by the time he retired, Mr. Burgess had written 170 books and 15,000 stories for daily columns in newspapers. Pretty impressive daily output in the days before blogging!All of the stories ref

Billy Bob Said 'Angelina’s just going through a high school phase,’ he says. ‘You know, dating the quarterback of the football team with Brad Pitt over there.’ Billy Bob, who was married to Jolie for three years until 2003, bragged that she might one day come back to him.
‘She’ll be waking up from that dream in no time,’ he stated. ‘

I've read and reread this quote a dozen times and can't figure out WHY Billy Bob Thornton would say such a thing. How very hurtful. Caring for 6 children and building a life around family is hardly a phase... "She is just going through a high school phase. You know dating the quarterback of the football team with Brad Pitt over there. She'll be waking up from that dream in no time. Who knows if

I find it very difficult to post anything during these playoffs lately. That is, until yesterday's games and events.Some days I can hate Sean Avery. But I really couldn't help but laugh at what he was doing to screen Martin Brodeur during Sunday's game. That was awesome comedic stuff. Brodeur was bewildered. "I've played for 15 years in this league. I've been watching games for 33 years. I had never seen that in my life," Brodeur said. "I don't think that kind of behavior should be done in front of the net, but there is no rule for it." Well, the NHL changed that in a New York minute. Today the NHL quickly added a new rule and stated that "An unsportsmanlike conduct minor penalty will be interpreted and applied, effective immediately, to a situation when an offensive player positions himse
We have tried to keep this on the down low until we got everything finalized. And now, we are ready to blow the whistle. As of May 1, 2008 The Thornton Team will be conducting business as usual, but it will be from Knoxville, Tennessee. We are doing this in an effort to build a stronger company presence in Tennessee. This will in no way impact how we are doing business here in Georgia or any other state for that matter.

The Informers has just had two new additions to it’s already impressive cast. Billy Bob Thornton and Kim Basinger have joined Brandon Routh, Austin Nichols, Ashley Olsen, Jon Foster and Lou Pucci in the big screen adaptation of The Informers.If you haven’t heard of Bret Easton Ellis, you’ve undoubtedly seen a movie based on his books: American Psycho, Less Than Zero, The Rules of Attraction. In my eyes the man is a genius and I’m so excited about this movie.
Kim Basinger and Billy Bob Thornton have become the latest people to join "The Informers," an ensemble drama based on a series of short stories by Bret Easton Ellis, who also wrote the script with Nicholas Jarecki. Gregor Jordan (Buffalo Soldiers) is set to direct.The drama takes place over the course of a week in 1983 in Los Angeles. The lives of seven characters intersect across this week, including movie execs, rock stars and, notably, a vampire.The cast already includes Lou Pucci (Thumbsucker), Austin Nichols (John From Cincinnati), Jon Foster, Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) and Ashley Olsen.
Angelina Jolie, the star of “The Good Shepherd”, credits Billy Bob Thornton, her former husband, for giving her the best advice following the death of her mother.
While the 32-year-old actress was struggling to cope with the grief of losing her mum, Marcheline Bertrand, to cancer earlier this year, her former husband called to offer his views on death.
The actress revealed, “He said, ‘You’ll never get over it. It’s never going to be Ok, and once you accept that, you realize you never want to get over it.’”
The actress added, “He said, ‘Just kind of let it sit with you, and let it be a part of who you now are.’”
Angelina Jolie recently admitted her weight loss is a result of the grieving process.

My interview with “The Astronaut Farmer” stars Billy Bob Thornton and Virginia Madsen has been published on MidwestBusiness.com.‘The Astronaut Farmer’ Epitomizes True Entrepreneurism in U.S. Today
CHICAGO – “I have a lot of nervous energy in my head. I always have to be working on something,” said actor – and now entrepreneur – Billy Bob Thornton in a Chicago interview with Adam Fendelman.Despite the mental projection of a guy who’s rough around the edges from earlier film work, Thornton’s unsuspecting lead role as Charles Farmer in “The Astronaut Farmer” tells a decidedly different story: one about the true tenets of American entrepreneurism and family.Thornton’s taxing road to his dream – building and launching the first civilian rocket into space – is engrained with the uncanny ups and downs reminiscent to entrepreneurs and Internet start-ups.Before reveling in all the rewards of his final pursuit, Farmer must first risk all that is sacred.Entrepreneurs are very familiar with the sometimes genius yet sometimes “hypomanic” compulsion required to trek to the moon – nearly literally in Farmer’s case – and they stop at nothing to get there. They
Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton only notched one national hit in her lifetime, but it was a true monster. "Hound Dog" held down the top slot on Billboard's R&B charts for seven long weeks in 1953. Alas, Elvis Presley's rocking 1956 cover was even bigger, effectively obscuring Thornton's chief claim to immortality.That's a damned shame, because Thornton's menacing growl was indeed something special. The hefty belter first opened her pipes in church but soon embraced the blues. She toured with Sammy Green's Hot Harlem Revue during the 1940s. Thornton was ensconced on the Houston circuit when Peacock Records boss Don Robey signed her in 1951. She debuted on Peacock with "Partnership Blues" that year, backed by trumpeter Joe Scott's band.But it was her third Peacock date with Johnny Otis's band that proved the winner. With Pete Lewis laying down some truly nasty guitar behind her, Big Mama shouted "Hound Dog," a tune whose authorship remains a bone of contention to this day (both Ot

X Factor bosses have dropped Louis Walsh as a judge and Kate Thornton as host as they think they are making the show dull.
A show insider said, “Kate’s devastated, she’s been in tears all day. She’s been on the show for three years but it wasn’t working any more. The powers that be felt the show was in dire need of an overhaul. Kate was one of the casualties. Frankly, Louis was just boring and, at times, his choices were odd. He walked out after talks with bosses which made it fairly clear he was about to be sidelined.”
The X Factor will be revamped with a new host and two new judges to sit alongside Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne. The contestant age will also be lowered to 14.
Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton is following fellow Nicole Scherzinger's paw prints into the solo career business. Nicole has been collaborating with several artists like Shaggy, Will Smith, Avant or Diddy, and now Melody teamed up with rapper Jibbs for his third single Go Too Far. The track is an hip hop update of Janet Jackson's Let's Wait a While (the chorus is sampled on Jibbs' version), and it's a rather good hip hop track if you ask me. Melody does a nice job and actually sings in a low key (there's no trace of her powerful back-ups on The Pussycat Dolls' repertoire). Melody is also releasing a solo album, just like Nicole. The Beginning is set to release around the same time as Nicole's solo album, and it's produced by Darkchild, Timbaland, Will.i.am and Pharrell Williams. Her first single is rumoured to be True Love Lasts and will feature Pharrell. While we wait for any of her tracks to leak, we can listen to Nicole's Steam (awesome track by the way) and this collaborat
