Haven’t watched Elvira in decades, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen her without makeup. Or at least that makeup. Still looking pretty good.

Fixing Fractures
With 3-D printed bone. Faster, please. Why should it wait five years for human trials?
One-Party Government
More Americans want it. Because the Left has succeeded in dumbing down the populace about the founding principles of the Republic. I agree with this:
…since the GOP will almost certainly hold the House — and looks like it’s got a good chance with the Senate — if you want one-party government you need to elect Trump. On the other hand, Trump’s so different from the Republicans in Congress that it would still be divided government, really. Which I personally find more of a comfort than a disappointment.
Yes.
Political Correctness
Without it, we might not have a terror problem at all.
My confidence in the FBI is pretty much zero at this point.

Speaking of the FBI, nothing that Comey says about the Clinton investigation makes any sense. Well, if you assume the fix was in from the beginning (as she told Brett Baier), it does.

From (Democrat, AFAIK) Jonathan Turley:
Of all of the individuals who would warrant immunity, most would view Mills as the very last on any list. If one assumes that there may have been criminal conduct, it is equivalent to immunizing H.R. Haldeman and John D. Ehrlichman in the investigation of Watergate.
Why, it’s almost as though there was no intent to seriously investigate.
This is gangster government, and it will only get worse if she gets into the White House. At least Trump will be more likely to be reined in by Congress (perhaps even impeached and removed).

Good question, from a smart prosecutor: “What more would she have had to do to get you to prosecute her?”
Improvements On Elon’s Mars Plans
This won’t be the first take on it, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. He worries too much about Martian winds, though.
[Noon update]
Is Elon Musk this generation’s von Braun?
The Obama “Recovery”
If it “had done no better than match the postwar average, the US economy would be more than two trillion dollars richer than it is — which translates to thousands of dollars per American household.
Heckuva job, Barry.”
This is why it’s such deception by the Democrats to say “how many jobs were created.” It ignores how many weren’t, or were destroyed.
National Coffee Day
This is the only reason I choke down the swill every morning. It’s totally on faith.
It’s also worth noting (as I’ve long suspected) that there does seem to be a genetic component to its effects, which is probably why I a) don’t like the stuff and b) it has no discernible effect on me.
Rejuvenation
What happens when you sew a young mouse to an old one so they share a vascular system?
Herpes
A vaccine breakthrough? That would be great news, particularly if it’s also therapeutic.
Want A Roomba?
We had one years ago, but the batteries died. I could probably figure out how to replace them (Roomba doesn’t make it easy), but this might actually be a more modern unit.
[Update]
Link is correct now, sorry.
