Early Link Salad

I will be on the road Monday looking at branches, so I'm posting some link salad today for your entertainment.

A) Jim Wright says that Mitt Romney is either incredibly smart or incredibly stupid for naming Paul Ryan as his running mate.

B)An interesting meeting with the man who invented the first internally programmable computer.

C)As jeff_duntemann said, here are some examples from the vertical blinds school of aviation.

D) In a rare display of professional consensus, an international consortium of anthropologists, archaeologists, and molecular biologists have formally released an exasperated sigh over the popularity of the so-called “Paleo Diet” during a two-day conference dedicated to the topic.

E) The top 10 differences between white terrorists and others.

F) An interesting pictorial of really cute Faroe Island villages.

G) A reminder about the student loan "bubble:" There’s a few key factors that don’t apply at all to student loan debt. Assets in typical asset bubbles are transferable and they are appreciable and they are held by private entities, none of which applies to student loans.

You did note the sentence at the bottom of the article that said the Paleo thing was a spoof, right? Not that the point isn't accurate, tho. We're Paleo, (mostly) but the underlying logic is pretty....well, dumb.

I presented the Paleo thing simply as food for thought... pun intended.
