Well, at least I know you read the whole thing, lisaltx!

Dallasfood.org was right about Nutella all along
Not only that, Kirby, but their slogan is still "Breakfast never tasted this good" and this page on their website clearly implies that eating Nutella on toast is part of a healthy breakfast, being as it's positioned next to fruit and a glass of juice.

UPDATED: Phillip Phillips wins Season 11 of American Idol
I have nothing against Jessica, Pinky, nor am I a staunch supporter of Phillip - I'm just a guy sharing his opinion after watching all season. Thanks for sharing yours.

Yumilicious, Dallas fro-yo chain, branches out from yogurt to shakes
I don't know, to me it's the same concept as chunks of brownie, cookie dough, or pumpkin pie that "regular" shake places have offered through the years. In that respect, I'd be fine with it.

Sorry, jolene - I'm sure you have a very nice hotel, but we don't allow that kind of comment. Please contact Sandra Henry if you're interested in advertising.

Movie review: Battleship
I'm waiting on Prometheus, James - that's my bet for best movie of the summer.

Review and photos: Cirque du Soleil: Quidam at Dr Pepper Arena in Frisco
I'll allow one non sequitur comment, stephen00080, but the same comment with embedded spam is a step too far.

Dick Van Dyke and The Vantastix
Egorsti, just put in all the information and then press the Enter button - that should work.

Really wanted to attend Saturday Food Truck Fest at Valley View - but at 2pm on Saturday the average line length was 50 people at every truck. Was this expected. I was really bummed :(
Jonmarctx, there must have been a lull after you were there, because we showed up around 3 and didn't have the same issues. Some trucks, mostly the ones from out of town, had huge lines, but we were able to get relatively short lines for Nammi and Coolhaus. The line to get in was huge when we left, though, so I bet there were line issues later.
My biggest issue with the festival, which I should have anticipated, was that they all had limited menus with items that were prepared before you ordered. That led to a few subpar choices, especially from Nammi. Lesson learned - hit food trucks on their normal schedules, not when they're overwhelmed by the demands of a festival.

UPDATED: Big Rich Texas' Pamela Martin-Duarte has prior felony conviction
info9172, we did fact check this info before we posted it. The link embedded on "specifically case number 16237" takes you directly to the court case record, which shows that Pamela Hagerty (now Duarte) was convicted on Felony Forgery charges. Merritt never says that Duarte spent any time in jail, so we see nothing false about this post.

UPDATED: McKinney's Hollie Cavanagh survives on American Idol against the odds
Oh, SitizenKane, here I was thinking you actually read my pieces. As you can see by my first line, she's originally from Liverpool, England.

Blue Man Group
hmavina, see Sarah's comment above - if you enter all the information and then press the Enter key, you should see a message saying "Thanks for entering! The winner will be notified June 18." Please let us know if that doesn't work for you. It also might have something to do with the browser you're using - what are you on, Internet Explorer, Firefox, or something else?

Movie review: The Avengers
Love Joss Whedon, tumbles - if he ever made a Dr. Horrible movie, I'd be first in line. Hey, maybe that's what this movie needed - more superheroes singing!

Movie review: The Avengers
Thanks for the comment, James - guess we'll just have agree to disagree. I, for one, am glad that I have one of the few dissenting opinions in the Avengers lovefest - life's more interesting when not everybody agrees, I think.

McKinney's Hollie Cavanagh gets by on American Idol with help from her friends
Thanks for the comment, Simon - we certainly don't discount Hollie's Liverpudlian roots, but we here in Dallas-Fort Worth like to claim her as our own, too. She's good enough to share, don't you think?

Don't know how you do it, but there I'd go under the freeway - much safer.

UPDATED: Alamo Drafthouse gets thumbs-up from Richardson planning commission
Teresa, if we lived in New York, you'd say that the proposed location is almost right next door to the Spring Valley DART stop. It's only a little over a mile away - practically nothing.

Gay List Daily celebrates Cinco de Mayo at Macho Nacho in Dallas
Thanks, Leah - this is actually a story from 2011, so it was written when Macho Nacho was still open.

Movie review: The Pirates! Band of Misfits
TG, Salma Hayek has a small role, so her accent is not that noticeable. And I hate 3D too, but this one didn't bother me - when it's done right (Avatar, Hugo, this), it's unobtrusive.

Dallas a little less rich and glamorous since Khloe Kardashian Odom left
I saw her at a basketball game. I'll never wash my eyes again.
