Eliot's Blog

This device isn't really new, except to me, but it's new to me, so...

My friend Eliot has a companion, Enrique. Evidently Enrique has thyroid cancer.

They have a zillion friends and well wishers who will want to keep up on the news. So El has started a blog. Eliot explains:

The idea is we easily let folks know what's going on without sending out emails that you may or may not want to get.

Rabbi Joseph Telushkin[1] offers advice on what to do when you hear a siren: pray that it gets there on time. He says:

[I]magine how encouraging it would be for those being rushed to a hospital to know that hundreds of people who hear the ambulance sirens are praying for their recovery.

There must be a blog version of this rule.
