Happy Birthday, Penn Jillette!

Dear Penn,

How do you do that trick where take away your assistant’s vocal cords? See, I’ve got this assistant at the office—she’s an excellent worker, and quite a peach, but something of a chatterbox. It’s always yap, yap, yap, all day long. I can’t take it. I don’t want to fire her, I just want her to shut up for a little while. At least until her mother is either cured or dead from lupus, because if I have to listen to her complain about that anymore I’m going to lose it.

Thanks, and have a happy birthday.

Yours,
Deepak Chopra
