The Woodhull Plaza used to be a wonderful busy truck stop and restaurant, UNTIL it was purchased by foreigners. As they do every business, including motels, restaurants, gas stations, etc., they milk the business for all its worth, do not put money back into the business then abandon it when its dead and move on to another American business. Our Government gives them tax breaks for the first few years, and in this duration is when they milk the business. Wake up USA!!!

Yeah, unlike all those upstanding Americans who never fail at their business opportunities. Racism like yours is why the rest of the world hates us right now. Being foreign has nothing to do with it.

that may be true but the plaza was "the place to be" for so many years! where did you go after a night of drinking? the plaza! it's very sad for those of us who are from here. the homestead is nice but it's not the plaza.

Daily Horoscope for January 8

Leo

Why are you still fighting, Leo? Everyone else went home a long time ago, but you're still here pounding your fists on the table. Although you don't want to admit it, accepting defeat may be your most practical option at this point. Sometimes it's just easier to move on than to keep up the fight. When you're forced to restructure, at least you have a chance to redefine. YouÕl get the opportunity to start with a clean slate, so use it to your advantage.
