Me: Hey, wait. Dead chicken said I won.

Brenda: Make sure he's on the menu.

Top Ten Top 10

Letterman has practically made a career out of his "Top 10" Lists. I'm shocked he doesn't have the copyright. He does, at least unofficially, as anyone who does anything similar immediately brings thoughts of him to mind. Go »
