CARE FOR A DECANTER OF MARTINI? Yes, the Times Square Howard Johnson's, a veritable museum and shrine to kitsch in all of its forms, will be closing later this year. Shed a tear, for soon, you will not be able to buy affordable saltwater taffy in NYC, and no longer will the restaurant clock chime "Give My Regards to Broadway" at 7:45 to remind patrons that they need to get to their theatre seats. Sure, the food borders on the inedible, but it's an experience that I'll try to have at least once more before it disappears for good.
