Penn Jillette: Every Day is an Athiest Holiday

I have not been able to commit to a book for a few weeks. I have started reading this Penn Jillette book, and can't put it down. I saw some of the newest celebrity apprentice season, and thought chemistry between Clay Akien and him was explosive and funny. Penn is actually a great guy. He treats his kids nice, and really cares about his family, he respects everyone he knows, and treats Teller like a brother. He respects everyone on the show, even if he doesn't show it. This belief in equality between celebrities and normal people is a strong one. I think penn is a great example of a modest celebrity. I think people should look up to people like him as a role model, because she shows how deep celebrities can actually be, and is completely honest with himself and the audience.

  3. Great post! I like how you showed Penn's good qualities by giving examples. I think you could've talked about the actual book more, though. The post is good anyway.
