This
file photo from Jan. 20, 2009, shows Cheryl and Vince Pierce posing
outside their Moondance Diner in La Barge, Wyo. Cheryl is
calling it quits after three years of trying to make a go of the
business. The diner, known from the 2002 "Spider-Man"
movie and TV shows including "Sex and the City" and "Friends,"
has been put up for sale after a long period of slow business.
The owners say that so far they haven't received a serious
offer.
