Noted in Passing

   Donald Trump reportedly wants to be governor of New York. Or rather, say he's willing to be anointed. He's willing to be a candidate, but only if he doesn't have to compete in a primary election or attend a convention.
   Can you say arrogant? I knew you could.

   Speaking of which, take Justin Bieber --  please, as Henny Youngman would say. The Bieb is an out-of-control teenager (there's another kind?) who just happens to be worth $130 million and doesn't seem to understand why he can't do whatever he wants, whenever and however he wants, simply because he's rich.

   Then there are the Christie Critters of New Jersey. Frank Hague, of Jersey City machine politics fame, would be proud. As would the mayors of Atlantic City and Newark.
   So? It's New Jersey. You got a problem with that?
