Respect It While You Can
Wednesday, May 27, 2009
The Barbara's Florist butler
statue was not glamorous. He was not wise. He was losing pieces of his nose
with every new season. But what he will be remembered for is his fondness of
the various holidays (pictured here: St. Patrick's Day), and very lifelike,
creepily human eyes. He was recently tossed away, his sacrifice of standing
sentient wearing ridiculous costumes day in and day out just a hindrance to
Barbara's Florist's new dreams. With fresh owners leading the charge, it will
soon change its name to "Walnut Flower Company": Philly's "hottest floral
design studio" with an "event planning division." The butler statue will not be
a part of it. Rest in Peace.
