	Penn Jillette revealed! - By Bryan Curtis - Slate Magazine
		Penn Jillette's place in show business is less as a magician or comedian than as a thinker.
		Penn and Teller have billed their act as the "magic show for people who hate magic." No adult, they said, believes that a magician could levitate or pass cards through the palms of his hand—to pretend otherwise is an insult to the audience.
		Jillette says he set out at 18 (and I'm pretty sure he's serious) to become the "great existential American writer." While he was an autodidact (he later wrote a novel), he was no Jack Kerouac, and his literary ambitions gave way to magic.

		Jillette's narrator in his first novel is something King could have created: a sock monkey named Dickie, the childhood doll of a now six-foot-six diver for the NYPD, who fishes stiffs out of the drink, and whom Dickie calls the Little Fool.
		Jillette (the speaking half of the renowned Penn and Teller magician/comedy team) opts to narrate his eccentric debut thriller from the perspective of the protagonist's sock monkey, Dickie, who constantly refers to his owner—a member of the New York City police scuba diving unit—as the Little Fool.
		Jillette's voice, as expressed through the persona of a stuffed puppet, is by turn folk philosophical, ranting, rageful, insightful and—often—annoying.

		While Star Trek fans, role-playing game fans, and even comic book fans eventually find each other and develop something like social groups, teenage magicians are, due to the rarity of their particular geek kink, more likely to remain socially retarded than any other group.
		That isolation and talent for magic allowed Penn & Teller a great deal of time to devote to revenge, mayhem, and making others look foolish.
		So Penn Jillette--the voice of the duo--wisely intersperses the scams with surprisingly heartfelt essays about his cranky personal obsessions.
