Emailing a VC and saying “I saw your Portfolio and it looks like we are focused on the same market” is not the same thing as doing the work to actually see where there are synergies in my portfolio. Raising money is hard. And it starts with that first email.

I would love to see that data. What is a “lucky VC” if not someone who has the fortune of finding amazing companies? So how would luck correlate with bad performance? I guess it depends upon your definition of “lucky.”

Got my new iPhone but forgot that all iPhones are carefully designed to never fit in old cases. I am surprised by how nervous having a caseless iPhone is making me. You’d think I hadn’t bought the bionic Apple Care for the price of the phone.

Inbox Zero. I truly don't think I've ever gotten to Inbox Zero before. I've always had some stupid email lingering. But tonight at 1:32am I have gotten to inbox zero. I will now go to sleep and awaken to 30 new emails. But for this brief moment, I am the master of my inbox!

I had very low expectations of Elon Musk here, but he has immediately exceeded my low expectations. Thanks to all of you who have engaged with me on Twitter over the years. I will miss you.
