Free HBO/Free Cable... Seriously?
I was driving past a decent hotel the other day in Omaha and I noticed that on the sign out front. The lettering was faded so I'm guessing it's been up there a few years. Why do hotels/motels still advertise that on their signs? I mean I know I don't look for hotels that allow me to watch Game of Thrones when I'm traveling. I look for places that might offer free wifi, free breakfast, free drinks and such.
Seriously? Isn't HBO and cable pretty much a staple at all hotels anymore? Maybe advertise free porn or how about Netflix or Hulu? Actually, **** your TV. Where's the free dinner vouchers or something?
It's kind of stupid, IMO. This is just a bit obscure and outdated nowadays. I could understand it in the 1980's when HBO was a big ****ing deal. Now it pretty much comes with any cable/satellite plan.

I've seen other outdated "deals" like that as well.

The gas station that still offers free air, the buffet restaurant that let's kids under four eat free... Shit like that just doesn't make sense anymore to me. Maybe it's to bring in the older crowds?
**** it, I'm gonna go watch me some free HBO at the motel 6.

That is definitely not a decent hotel.

I'm all for saving a buck, but I'd camp in a tent first.

Really? QT still has free air. Which is nice.

Hey mother****er. If it's one thing we can do, it's gas stations. Drive through Healy KS one time and tell me if Healy Oil belongs in a town like that.

Really though, when you have a big leak and NEED air to make it to the tire repair shop or home, it can be hard to find. I can understand town vehicles. Bought the wife a new car 2 years ago, and we never take it off a paved road and there are precisely 0 patches in those tires. My pickup on the other hand had at least 8 in each of the back tires. I'm a little more sensitive to the air situation than most.

Accordingly, I'm picking up one of these after harvest so I never have to **** with it again.

I don't have HBO at home but when I stay at hotels they always do. There's never anything I want to see on there. I can't imagine paying for it.

Nice! You know I have a smaller compressor, (3 hp I think) that you can have if you pay shipping. Or maybe you get your big ass out here and pick it up whilst getting shit faced.

Free air definitely is. I think QT might be the only gas station to offer free air anymore. I pulled in a Phillips 66 last week and had to pay 50 cents for air and on top of that I bought a bottled water. I was thinking to myself what my grandpa who's been dead for 35 years would've thought about me paying for water and air. I don't know where I'm going with this but you saying that made me think of it. Lol

One thing I can't stand with a hotel is when they only have powdered creamer for the coffee.

Sorry. I'm not a pilot.
However, I do own a bomber jacket and some aviators.
