Bizarre News: Woman Accuses Letterman of Using Code Words

Attorneys for television talk show host David Letterman want a judge to quash a restraining order granted to a Santa Fe woman [Colleen Nestler] who contends the celebrity used code words to show that he wanted to marry her and train her as his co-host...

Nestler's application for a restraining order was accompanied by a six-page typed letter in which she said Letterman used code words, gestures and "eye expressions" to convey his desires for her...

She said he asked her to be his wife during a televised "teaser" for his show by saying, "Marry me, Oprah." Her letter said Oprah was the first of many code names for her, and that the coded vocabulary increased and changed with time.
