Why does Penn Jillette have red nail polish on his one finger?

It's an inside joke with his mom, kind of like Carol Burnett tugging her ear for her grandmother :)Why does Penn Jillette have red nail polish on his one finger?
There has been considerable speculation on this and the reasons given from his official website include:





He once shot a man for asking personal questions





It's in honor of his mother. When he was first starting out, his mother told him to get a manicure because people would be constantly looking at his hands. As a joke, he had all of his fingernails painted red but now only has that particular one done.





It looks good and is a way to creat misdirection while he is doing his tricks
