Before I get started…this made me laugh re Corona Virus:

It is cold in New York and combined with the Corona Virus panic, the streets and restaurants seem pretty quiet.

I am oblivious to all things panic so I ran around the city yesterday seeing founders and even doing Soul Cycle which in hinsdsight, seems like a perfect spot for the virus to spread.

Speaking of panic, Josh Brown updates a great chart on the topic of panic which you can see here with his lates update being the Corona Virus:

I would add…When you are scared … buy a stock. Make it one we with products that both eight year olds and eighty year olds love that has high margins.

Last night, the founder of ‘Slice – The Pizza App‘ (Ilir Sela) invited me and a few others to a pizza tour in SOHO. Being a blogger and Twitterer does have its perks!

My old favorite Prince Street Pizza has become too crowded for me, but Ilir has some pull and as I pulled up in my Uber, we had a piping hot pie ready and dug in on the street. We headed over to Lombardi’s next with the group.

Ilir has built an incredible and massive business. It was fun to talk shop with him about growth and product. They have 600 customer support people in North Macedonia who all use Kustomer (a portfolio company of ours).

Tomorrow I plan on more of the same, but will add a falafel or two.
