called an HVAC guy to replace a $40 capacitor on my air conditioner. quote came back at $680. i asked him how long the fix takes. he goes: "about 15 minutes." i said: "so I'm paying $2,700 an hour for labor?" he looked around and whispered: "i make $26 an hour. the private equity firm that bought out our family-owned business last year sets mandatory revenue quotas on every service call." then he showed me his tablet. if he doesn't hit $3,000 a day in upsells, he gets written up. the original founder ran that company for 30 years charging $150 a visit and built a great life. now wall street owns local plumbing, electrical, and AC contractors across the country, jacked up prices by 350%, and put working-class technicians on corporate sales commissions. you aren't paying for skilled trade labor anymore. you're funding a hedge fund's profit margin on basic home maintenance.

Help the woman out!
Hi fellow #iufb attendees! Not sure if it happened Friday night, but I have lost a set of keys. Older style square auto fob, an auto key with a square black top labeled Ford and a basic residential door key. We park at the outdoor pool lot, seats on the east side.

He started all 34 games for the 1954 USC Trojans, the team that went to the Final Four. Ten years later he played volleyball for the United States at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo. He fought fires for a living and did it until he retired in 1983. He acted. In 1972 he played a fire captain on the show Emergency!, and the character's name was Captain Dick Hammer. Nobody bothered changing it. He did ten episodes of the first season and left. And in the 1970s, while he was still working the job for real, he became one of the men who posed as the Marlboro Man. His name was Dick Hammer. He was born in Long Beach, California in 1930. He died there in October 1999 of lung cancer. He was 69 years old. His grandson was two. That grandson is Sam Darnold. Darnold went to USC too, the same school where his grandfather started every game of a Final Four run. His older sister Franki went on to hold volleyball records at Rhode Island. His mother played college volleyball. His father played offensive line. The athletic line in that family runs straight back to a firefighter from Long Beach who went to the Olympics, and Sam Darnold barely got to meet him. Now here is today. On September 9, on the first series of the season opener against the New England Patriots, Darnold hurt his glute. Soft tissue damage. The reporting said 4 to 6 weeks. He missed one game. Drew Lock started against the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle won 31-7 anyway. A CT scan came back with no breaks. He was limited in practice Wednesday, full Thursday, full Friday. Today he starts against the Washington Commanders. His head coach Mike Macdonald was asked about it and said he was ready to go and had done a great job. Then he smiled. "It's a medical miracle that he's back." Five weeks early, on a soft tissue injury, at 29 years old. What he is walking back into is the best situation of his life. The Seattle Seahawks have not lost a football game since November 16, 2025. Twelve straight wins, counting the playoffs. A Super Bowl. The number one seed before that. Darnold came 21st on the NFL Top 100, voted by the players, after finishing 72nd the year before. Four years ago the entire league had agreed he could not play quarterback. His grandfather never saw any of it. Not USC, not the third overall pick, not the Jets, not the ghosts, not Minnesota, not the ring. Dick Hammer died in 1999 and the kid who would carry all of it was still in diapers. Today that kid starts a football game five weeks earlier than anyone said he would.
