Chip and Cern Show


Jun 7, 2018

Chip’s neighborhood had some break-ins and Chip got to used one of his Nest Cams to do some detective work, pull together his security footage, analyze the data and report to the po-po. Chip spent a few hours one night putting everything together and put it on his local Nextdoor.com site. 
 
Chip seemed to have his hopes hopes up on getting praise from the community, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Instead he got crickets. The post about people in trucks driving down a certain street had 49 comments and likes. The bitching and complaining is that of an old lady’s hairdressers.  
 
Cern got booted from his Nextdoor at his previous app because he would comment “who cares” when people are trying to boost their numbers on their BBQ. 
 
Cern has the Ring Doorbell and they have a feature where people can post clips to their local neighborhood. The concept of this feature is really cool, but Cern finds one that says “is this your cat?” One solicitor rang the doorbell, but put his hand in front of his face. 
 
Chip walked a beat on his neighborhood looking for more folks with cameras. 
 
A quick tangent about Mapquest and when Chip printed out driving direction to the closest Indian Casinos that Chip, Joe, Cern, and Dana would drive to once in a while. Chip’s dad found the directions when Chip was pissing and said he had “one foot on devil’s door.” Cern also recalled  a story of when that Joe his a bear on the way to that same casino. Chip has no recollection of this event at all. 
 
Cern’s Ring Cam has really paid off because he can talk with the FedEx and UPS people and they can do a verbal signature to deliver the package. You can hang up on the  doorbell as well, so you don’t have to listen to the full spill from the religious group or magazine salesperson. 
 
There is another Facebook group about each local community. Both Chip and Cern’s wife are on these pages, but it is too triggering for Chip and Cern to join in. 
 
Chip and Cern read some Nextdoor highlights and just get themselves worked up.
