One off, one on :(

I often incorporate prayers for the financial health of family, friends, and/or blogger buddies into the "barech aleinu et ha-shanah ha-zot" (bless for us this year) b'rachah/blessing of the Amidah prayer. Wouldn't you know, no sooner had I taken one blogger off my list--mazal tov, Ezzie!--than I had to add another one. I have no kind words for the current state of the economy. Best of luck to Elie and to all those currently between jobs.
