This week in the Riverdale Review and Bronx Press

So, this is my (Brendan) last week at the Bronx Press and Riverdale Review. It's been a wonderful 18 months, and most wonderful were the last few when I was blogging as well. I thank all of you for your comments, tips and suggestions (and most of all, your page views!). We had almost 7,000 page views in the month of January, up from less than 1,000 in the first month I started.

Every Bronx Press and Riverdale Review my
byline has appeared in since Sept. 1, 2010.

I leave you in the capable hands of Miawling Lam, our associate editor here at the paper (Her recent post on the Lehman HS protest holds the record for the most page views, so I'd say you'll be fine!)

So, as always, and for my last time, here are the stories appearing in this week's editions (Feb. 2-8) of the Riverdale Review and Bronx Press:
