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)
