Speaking in tongues

Another from the “America, goniff” files: there’s another New Yorker to make the Twitterati giggle. Based on his attempts to speak Spanish to his constituents, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has inspired a faux-Spanglish-tweeting web presence. Se llama El Bloombito.

El B evidently was born of the Hurricane Irene communications blitz; Bloomberg doesn’t seem to have discovered Rosetta Stone. Or Berlitz.

But I still hold dear my Bronx Zoo Cobra, who—while not as verbose as Bloombito—knows how to deliver a punch line.
