Revolving Stores

"You know there's always one store location in your neighborhood that's constantly changing hands. Everybody has one of these in their neighborhood. It's a leather store, it's a yogurt shop, it's a pet supply. It's constantly changing. Nobody can do business there. It's like some sort of Bermude Triangle of retail. Stores open up and then they just disappear without a trace. Nobody knows what happened to them. I guess eventually when aliens land from the mother ship like in Close Encounters, the bottom will slowly open and all these store owners will come wandering out in a daze going, 'I thought there was going to be more walk-in traffic, didn't you? Nobody even looked in the windows.'" -- Seinfeld
