First Curry's, then EuroPro's? Yikes. The phrase "jumping from the frying pan into the fire" comes to mind.

They should have gone Weekend at Bernie's style, and propped it back up, reinforced the trunk with some rebar and concrete. They could paint the top green from time to time, to make it look healthy.
