Photos: Eating was no challenge at Taste Addison 2013
I would remove picture # 8.. It isn't flattering of the people or the food.

Best and worst commercials of the Super Bowl
I forgot about the Gangham- pistachio nut ad. The background line of "Hey crack your nuts now" was a bit strange - among other adjectives.

Best and worst commercials of the Super Bowl
GoDaddy.com ad - Most people don't know what godaddy.com "does" or sells - what they do have now is a negative vibe about godaddy.com. Who is running GoDaddy and CBS -- 13 year olds? No offense to 13 year olds.
Farmer Ad - was great to hear classic Paul Harvey - that clipped tone, and wit. Excellent ad.
Kudos to Oreo for amazingly quick "It's OK to dunk in the dark" ad on Twitter.
Oprah voiceover - moving, and captivating - couldnt look away.
Not a bad move by "SodaStream" to spend their entire 2013 add budget on Superbowl spot !
Coke ad - wrong in so many ways. Technically (website down), politically incorrect, oh - and too long.

Eatzi's in West Plano slated to open in fall 2013
Eatzi's will really do well in this loation. The thought of it being so close to my home (1 mile) already has me thinking of still warm baked goods, fabulous salads and sandwiches made to order.

Restaurant review: Looking for the best pizza in Dallas? Try Cane Rosso

Three DFW companies make "most hated" list
I used to work for the #1 company on the list. I got "out" (retired) long before this trouble started. Very sad state of affairs now...I was optimistic about the new direction at one time, not so sure now.

Movie review: Les Misérables embodies pure, tragic beauty
Great review. My background - seen play 10 times - including Colm, Ruffelle, Michael Maguire, Terrance Mann - and every video - making of, 10th anny, 25th anny at O2 etc. Loved the movie in every aspect. So true to Great review. My background - seen play 10 times - including Colm, Ruffelle, Michael Maguire, Terrance Mann - and every video - making of, 10th anny, 25th anny at O2 etc. Loved the movie in every aspect. I am anxious to see how the film does "after" the true Les Miz fans see it...i.e. how will it play to "newcomers" - I hope very well. Do you know anyway to get the music that plays over the credits in the movie. Would love to have! JonB Texas

New Big Tex could cost $600,000
I agree that that is way too much $$. How is the City of Dallas involved in this - perhaps they can give a breakdown of the costs. Just can't see how it could be that much.

BREAKING NEWS: Big Tex destroyed by fire but "will be back"
Very sad day. Good to know he will be rebuilt and be back next year. Still, the sight of the flames was painful.

Mom who glued toddler's hands to wall: "I will never forgive myself"
She can get her "counseling" while she is in prison - for a long time. Does anyone think that the 2 year old baby got any sympathy, 2nd chance, leniency?

Counselor: Mom who glued toddler's hands to wall loves her kids
There is no defense, there is no counseling. This is beyond anything that any normal person wants in our society. This woman should go to jail for life. Period.

Dallas' BBQ Snob on Anthony Bourdain: "The guy knows how to work a crowd"
I saw the show and I had NOT seen Bourdain before this. Loved his commentary and his down to earth description of the food and his reactions to it. 1st Class. The camera work was also great. I have to find a way to get to Franklin's - I live in Plano and am thinking going to Austin on a weekday to avoid the rush. Anyone have any thoughts on that? Thx

Restaurant review: Liberty Burger in Dallas
Your review is kind of "weak". How WAS the burger -besides "it filled you up"? How was cost of burger vs quality and greatness of the burger? How does Liberty compare to other burger places you've reviewed? I can't tell from your review if I should go there. Truth is - I have been there and didn't think the burgers were worth the cost. Shakes --> fab. Rings - massive in size, but nothing special.
