A Hilarious Chat with David Letterman on Regis, Kim Kardashian & His Crazy iPhone Case

I am so goddam puzzled about the Kim Kardasian thing. 80s Dave would have hated her. I watched the episode and she did NOT impress. So narcissistic, and how impressed should we be that she spends 20 (!) hours a week studying law??? I read 100 pages of case law a day in law school. She is deadly boring.
