Letterman did a top ten the other night on NYC cabbies:
Top Ten Things You Don't Want To Hear In A New York City Taxi
10. "I have to tell you this up front -- I don't have a driver's license, I never had a driver's license, and I don't plan on getting a driver's license"
9. "Just so you know, this cab is clothing-optional"
8. "If the cops pull us over, keep quiet -- I got stolen TVs in the trunk"
7. "You know anything about cars? (holds up loose car part) Where's this go?"
6. "Put on your seat belt -- I'm going to ram into this car"
5. "You seem so sad -- why don't you talk to Mr. Sunshine?" (holds up little doll)
4. "I'm only filling in for the regular driver -- he got called back to serve in the Iraqi Army"
3. "I'm only two traffic violations away from setting a new cab driver record"
2. "In the event of an accident, my mustache will inflate"
1. "Hey, did you hear Bloomberg said we can drink in the cab?" (takes a swig from a bottle)
...and they had a camera in a cab showing the cabbie saying these things. on the last one, this real uppity woman shrieks, "you're not really drinking, are you?!!!!?" ROFL
haha he had the hugest bottle of liquor too!
