We are not, as you might imagine, theologians, and thus we've never engaged in the textual analysis (or, quite likely, Google searching) necessary to answer a riddle of Jewish law that's always had us confused: When we repent for our sins tomorrow, does that repentance cover sins committed specifically in 5765 (in which case sins rendered since Rosh Hashanah, last week, will sit unrepented-for until next year), or does it cover sins since last Yom Kippur?

We raise this Talmudic concern now only to wonder: Will Dov Charney be immediately absolved for the ironically mocking faux-Yiddishkeit minstrelsy that currently dominates the Houston Street store? Because if he doesn't have to hang onto blame for this shonda for at least a few weeks, he's getting off way too easy.
