When will the ICC open?
November 15, 2010
I wrote a freelance piece on the InterCounty Connector (ICC) for the North Potomac-Darnestown edition of Patch.

Sometime in the coming weeks or months, possibly as early […]

I corresponded with representatives from both Comcast SportsNet and Verizon about the issue and want to share their responses. But first, a quick thank you to the […]
Verizon Fios Frustrating Some Caps Fans in D.C. Area
November 18, 2009
This story hasn’t gotten much coverage from the mainstream media or the blogosphere yet, but hopefully it will soon. For whatever reason, Verizon Fios is not carrying CSN+ in Howard County, Anne Arundel County and other markets.
