David Letterman farmed out his final Late Show Top Ten list to "10 frequent Late Show guests and good friends of ours," with the topic: Top 10 Things I've Always Wanted to Say to Dave. There are some nice insults aimed Letterman's way, but a lot of the jokes were about the people making them — Jim Carrey, for example, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who also (hilariously) threw a little shade at Jerry Seinfeld, another of the presenters. Chris Rock got a tad bit political, as did Tina Fey — whose No. 2 entry upstaged the No. 1 bit by Bill Murray. Oddly, with all the high-wattage stars on stage, Letterman is clearly most impressed to see Peyton Manning — must be an Indiana thing. You can watch the barbs and laughs below. —Peter Weber
