Orchid Chronicles: One of the Orchid Center's benefactors, JP Brig$$$ (who made his fortune in the .com frenzy), provided for the residents an evening out and away from the Center. They dined at the famous Rose Shop Greenhouse and later attended an exhibition basketball game of the Floral Globe Trotters (a JP Brig$$ team). It was an amusing performance. After the game, the residents each received an autographed basketball and a return trip to the center in a stretch limousine. The only hitch in the evening's events was an impromptu performance by the Lemon Sisters. With a spotlight, microphone, and audience, prior to the game awaiting a singer to perform, they went into group trance, and moved together toward the sound system. They couldn't help themselves--They were born to perform. They "politley pushed' their way to the microphone and dazzled the crowd with a female barbershop quartet-style version of the National Anthem.
Our Benefactor thought the performance was for him, and he was so impressed that he donated an additional $1M for the arts programing at the Orchid Center. A conundrum--Now how will the Director discipline the Lemon Sisters for a deed well rewarded?
