Montgomery County Council Member, Roger Berliner, tweeted the following about prepaying property tax in MoCo: “The County issued an update on the property tax prepayment option & the IRS advisory on this matter: bit.ly/2E7UrZK. It is very disappointing. We did what we could. Do consult with your tax adviser before considering prepayments.”
Popular Silver Spring coffee shop, Bump ‘N Grind, is holding the grand opening of their kiosk at Ellsworth Place (formerly City Place Mall). Ellsworth Place is slowly but surely making the right moves.

It has been everywhere the last few days, but let me break this down in a way that’s easy to understand for everyone.
The newly approved federal Republican tax-cut bill limits the SALT deduction (state and local taxes to include property tax and income tax) to $10,000.

Herson Reyes, 25, was born in San Miguel, El Salvador. He moved to Silver Spring, MD with his mother, his two brothers, and his sister when he was 7 years old. He attended Glen Haven Elementary School and Parkland Middle School. His family moved to Wheaton and finally Gaithersburg, where Herson graduated from Quince Orchard High School.
Herson wanted to work from a young age. His older brother Ever, who was already working as a bar back at the Capitol Hill Cava Mezze location, told Herson and his twin brother Edward that there was one bussing position available at Cava Mezze in D.C. The twins played a game of “Rock, Paper, Scissors” to see who the opportunity would go to…Herson won.

“Muhammad Ali helped me realize that being outspoken can be a good thing.” – Robin Ficker
He’s definitely outspoken. Robin Ficker’s name is synonymous with local elections. He hasn’t won since 1978, when he was elected to the House of Representatives as a Republican (he has run as a Democrat, Republican, and as an independent candidate), but he is confident that he will get this one.

Today is a pretty big day for football fans in our area. The local football team, the Washington Redskins, are playing their biggest rivals, the Dallas Cowboys. With so many Cowboys fans in the area, it prompted me to write about locally grown fans of other teams.
Here are my personal thoughts/rules:

My tour started with a tasting at Moorenko’s, a place that I believe has the BEST ice cream in MoCo. I tried all 30 flavors they had on hand and in a couple weeks I’m going to give you an in-depth look at what Moorenko’s has to offer.
As we continued to walk, we passed Denizen’s. Denizen’s is a local brewery that I also visited a few days before this tour. When I went, it was a warm day and I got to enjoy two very different beers on their patio. The Gruit and the Big Red Norm. It was a good time and a fun place to hang out for a bit.
