Usually it’s some government office kind of event. But he honored his Asian American employees this week.
That’s what you get when you retire during heritage month.
See this clip of Asian American legend Connie Chung “singing” on Letterman in 1988.

It started in football. But now in most sports, the replay is the insurance policy against bad judgment.
So why not in life?
I’ve long advocated taking video of anything that might have the hint of sparking some transgression, just to keep all participants smiling for the camera.
But here’s an instance recently at Kennesaw State, a public university outside of Atlanta, where a white administrator clearly has little patience for a black student.

We saw it with last year’s debate on S-CA 5, the bill that would have restored affirmative action.
A group of Asian Americans were aggressively against affirmative action.
Traditional Asian American civil rights groups were for affirmative action.
The aggressive AAs won.
Check out how this is coming down nationally in my new column here:
It’s an Asian American Civil War.
Tim Lincecum just didn’t seem right in Cincinnati.
He seemed to slip, literally and figuratively. It was nothing like the comfort zone he found at AT&T. On the road, he lost his footing, walked five, nearly balked twice.
An all-around awkward performance as the Reds beat the Giants 4-3.
Surprising it was that close.
The Giants even held a lead for three innings. But then Lincecum ran up the pitch count and was lifted after 4 2/3 innings.
The Linceline: 4.2 ip, 5 hits, 3 runs, 3 ER, 5 BB, 4 Ks.
Overall, his ERA is 2.43, but this was not a good one tonight for the best part Filipino player in the MLB.
Good game for Marlon Byrd of the Reds who was 2-2, 2 walks, 3 RBIs, and had the game-winning home run off reliever Sergio Romo.
