Married Letterman No Longer A Gunslinger

In typical Letterman fashion, a deadpan Dave told his audience he was officially off the market while sitting at his desk fidgeting through cards.
The 62-year-old funnyman, who wed longtime girlfriend Regina Lasko March 19 at Montana's Teton County courthouse, explained to his audience Monday why it took so long to make it official.
"Regina and I began dating in February of 1986, and I said, `Well, things are going pretty good, let's just see what happens in about 10 years,'" Letterman said. "I secretly felt that men who were married admired me ... like I was the last of the real gunslingers, you know what I'm saying?"
The Lettermans have a 5-year-old son named Harry.
