Gov. Gray Davis got a chance to reshape his staid public image with a cameo appearance Friday on David Letterman's ``Late Show.''
The second governor in U.S. history to be recalled from office, Davis has never been known for his sense of humor. Nevertheless, the Democrat jumped at the chance Thursday to tape the popular ``Top Ten'' countdown for Letterman, offering bits of advice to his Republican successor, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

6. ``To improve your approval rating, go on Leno; when you get kicked out, go on Letterman.''

4. ``You could solve the deficit problem by donating your salary from 'Terminator 3.'''
3. ``If things are bad, just yell, 'Save us, Superman!'''
2. ``While giving a speech, never say, 'Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara ... same thing.'''
