FOX speculating that there are hostages in the cabin with Dorner. Dear, God, no.

He’s insane, and so is anyone who supports his actions. I just heard that he may have hostages, too.

An outstanding choice!

If I lived in that community, the minute I heard about his truck being found, I’d have packed myself, my pets and some stuff and bugged out to a motel or friend’s house someplace-you can’t be taken hostage if you aren’t there...

If someone handcuffed me to the radiator and forced me to watch tonight’s State of the Union address, I would gnaw my arm off and then grab a Macallan’s. (With my remaining hand.)

My first husband liked Glenfiddich, and always kept some in the house, but scotch is something I never learned to like. Once in a blue moon, I will drink a few sips of Jack Black, or a nice brandy, but I much prefer to just smell it in the snifter-the hard stuff has always gone straight to my head...

Never got the taste for Scotch. Bourbon for me.

Reruns of the British “Pride and Prejudice” TV series is on ovationTV, and “Who Really Discovered America” is on H2-I’ll have my eyes on that instead of the SOTU, even though I want to see the Nuge aggravating the emperor just by being there...

Aberlour is one of my favs - My husband loves single malts so he tends to try various ones. The Macallan we currently have is a 10 year old -
