Here are some Bronx-related stories we've rounded up you, our lovely readers, while trolling the interweb with our horse and lasso this fine morning:Public Advocate Betsy Gotbaum calls on the City for immediate action regarding South Bronx swamp [Public Advocate's Corner] (BD Note: That's nice. We're happy that people are starting to see how outrageous this situation is... But if a Public Advocate falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? That's right, BoogieDowner's getting philosophical on yo ass - boo yeah! Simply put: Does anyone really care what Betsy has to say? Too bad this stinky swamp situation isn't in Jimmy Vacca's district - it would have been cleaned up year's ago.)
