President Barack Obama and Letterman discussed their post-office plans, and the President pays tribute to Letterman when he makes his eighth and final visit on the LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN, tonight, Monday, May 4 (11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Get a sneak peek below!

"What will you do when you're not President?" Letterman asked. "Well, I was thinking, you and me, we can play some dominoes together," President Obama said. "Dominoes - alright," Letterman said. "We can, you know, go to the local Starbucks and, you know, swap stories," the President joked. Letterman then told the audience that during one of the breaks, the President said that when he leaves office, he's planning to take a month off. "I said, 'Are you kidding me? After eight years of this, you're only taking a month off?'" Later, the President continued, "I really like the idea of playing some dominoes with you." "I'll play dominoes," Letterman said. "I'm pretty good. I know you think I'm no good at dominoes, but I'm pretty good at dominoes. And I plan to teach law at Columbia." As the audience laughed, President Obama said, "Well, that's good...That's good. You know, I'd be interested in sitting in on that class. I mean, that'd be a hoot."

At the end of the interview, Letterman said, "I don't know quite what to say by expression of gratitude here. It's particularly meaningful to me because, I think, like most Americans, we feel we know you. You've been kind enough to be here on many occasions. Your wife has been here on many occasions, and you hosted us at your home in Washington, D.C., and all of these have been very meaningful to me and to my family, and I can only wish you all the best in life."

"Well, Dave, let me just say this," said President Obama. "And I mean this sincerely, and I know I speak for Michelle, she probably had a chance to say it herself. You know, we've grown up with you. The country I think has, you know, after a tough day at the office or coming home from work, knowing you've been there to give us a little bit of joy, a little bit of laughter, it has meant so much, and you're part of all of us...You've given us a great gift, and we love you." President Obama's entire interview can be seen on the LATE SHOW tonight.

The LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN is a production of Worldwide Pants Incorporated. Barbara Gaines, Matt Roberts, Jude Brennan and Rob Burnett are the executive producers. Jerry Foley is the director.
