Default Penn Jillette on Father's Day
I'm not sure where this should go, but I know that Penn Jillette has a following here. He has a very touching family portrait in today's LA Times.

Penn Jillette on being a new dad at 50 "So's Your Old Man"

Penn reveals that his parents were old when he was born, and that he had a good relationship with them. He now has two children, one conceived through high tech artificial insemination.

On the upside, I hope I've learned something from being alive this long that will make me a better dad. Moxie and Zolten will be asked if I'm their grandfather, but that'll be the least of their embarrassments. They'll also have a dad with a stupid beard and hair down his back talking atheism at the PTA meeting. If they say the name of their dad's TV show in school, they'll be punished.
