Mad Hatter Day is a day to do and say things that are usually considered absurd, but actually are very logical; and to avoid things that are considered normal, but are actually quite ludicrous. Kinda confusing, so today it should make perfect sense. Celebrate this mad holiday by doing…pretty much whatever you want. Things to do »

Perhaps you've heard stories from Room No. 4 at the Hammel House in downtown Waynesville — the site of a gruesome 19th-century murder. Or maybe you've heard tales from the Friends (Quaker) Meeting House. A candlelight flickers in the window, perhaps signaling long-dead conductors on the Underground Railroad. With more than 30 haunted houses, Chris Woodyard of Beavercreek, author of the "Haunted Ohio" book series, says Waynesville is easily the "most haunted town in Ohio." Call and schedule a haunted tour, and maybe you'll spot some ghosts. More »
Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, deception and explosions … as if you need further plot explanation: A CIA operative hatches a dangerous plan to catch the leader of a terrorist organization, but conflicts with his two closest allies may cost him his life. More »
Whether you're looking for a new spot for a date, a night out with the girls or whatever, The Melting Pot offers delicious fondue fun for everyone at its first area location in Washington Twp. The Melting Pot's fondue dining concept is certainly distinctive. Here, the diners are the chefs.

Natural hair styles were worn by blacks in the 1960s and 70s as a means to express political activism and cultural pride. But do natural hair styles worn by men and women today still have such meaning? Produced by: Meghan Crosby,Chris Griffith

As stated, “everyone has differing opinions on what makes a great pizza”, oh so true! I can’t agree more with ‘togaTapper’ - a classic message about the burgers, cracked me up! These pizza you reviewed are chains and truly don’t have great pizza, it’s more convenient VS. tasty. If you are from the northeast ‘Flying Pizza’ is the best I’ve tasted locally. I’m still looking for the best white pizza in town and I heard that ‘Palermo’s’ is pretty good (next on the list to try)!

Chris, What are you reading or are you reading at all? The winner was a LOCAL shop. The runner-up was a LOCAL shop. Half of the places profiled are LOCAL shops. Stop sniffing glue just for a moment and think about your comment.

I found that Oregon Express has some wonderful pizza and I am sad that it was not on your list. I am not a Dayton native and being able to find some good pizza has been my one of my tasks. I would definately recommend Oregon Express chicken pizza and Dewey’s. If you are south of town, Franklin’s PH Bistro has some pretty good pizza too!

Nice idea to rate pizza in Dayton. But why not support Dayton pizza chains. I’m pretty sure everyone already knows what Pizza Hut, Dominos, Papa Johns, etc. tastes like. If someone is visiting from another city or state, they want to try the local establishments and not something they can get in any other city in the country.

Troni’s is by far the best pizza in Dayton. The closest you can get to New York pizza! Do yourselves a favor and try it, you will be hooked!

Seriously…this is the list?
Missing are pie selections from (and all of these are better than most on the list in my opinion): Giovanni’s Troni’s Oregon Express Disalvo’s Deli Joe’s Pizza McGillicutty’s LaRosa’s
You all have enough time to try every terrible chain restaurant in the city, but not enough time to try some of the best pizza joints in Dayton? When we test burgers will you only be trying McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Burger King, Big Boy, Applebee’s, & Rally’s?

Giovanni’s definitely rates a try. Dewey’s is a favorite with me and my friends. They do a half and half that gives everyone what they want.

Next time, try Giovanni’s on Main Street in Fairborn. My favorite is with sausage, onions, and extra cheese.
