Dear Dave: Oh, Nothing.

the letters I never sent to David Letterman
by John Cady


 

Dave Letterman is a pretty popular guy these days, more so even than when I wrote this book in 1993.

The book is an account of my mission to send Dave countless letters for his mailbag, letters I assumed would be read on his show, letters which would endear me to Dave, his family and perhaps even that woman who breaks into his house.

Join me in my quest for the coveted "Friend of Dave" grail; you might learn some valuable lessons. I know I have.
