Penn Jillette

I will not counter the insanity of the PATRIOT Act with an overblown fear of my rights being taken away.

I like things matching. I have an upright bass, a drum kit and a grand piano that's the same color. I tend to overthink things.

I'm a huge Dallas Mavs fan. What I love about Dirk Nowitzki is he has just as much talent as everyone else, if not more, and he never toots his own horn. He's this silent warrior.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.
