The Orthodox Apprentice - Shomer Shabbos!

On tonight's Apprentice, Dan and Lee inform their team that they are taking off for Rosh HaShannah. Check out the preview of tonight's episode, found on The Apprentice homepage. Make sure to catch Lenny's equivocation of equation of working on the show to serving in the Israeli army (from which we learn that (a) Lenny is Jewish and possibly that (b) although the show bills him as Russian, he might be an Israeli-Russian).

Regardless of how this affects Lee or Dan on the show, it's a big Kiddush HaShem. I still think it would be awesome if one of the guys got fired for taking off, although I don't think that is going to happen (although with MOT George Ross sidelined for tonight's episode, anything is possible).

This is just like when Tamir scored a basket from the center of the basketball field!

It's called a court, not a field.

It's not equivocates, it's equates. To equivocate is something else entirely.

Charles: Thanks; I've been reading The Guide lately, must have had an influence. ;)

Are you sure that "equivocates" means something else entirely? I'm not so certain.

"equating" not "equation"

After watching the show tonight-a kiddush Hashem was truly made! I'm not sure what will happen when Succot rolls around but for the moment-there was respect.
