Looking to take this column apart

Looking to take this column apart to relieve the bricks as it started to lean quite a bit over past few years. The top paver is not glued on. But rest of the bricks appear to be glued together. What is best way to do this without damaging the bricks so they can be reused?

Also what are the chances if I dig under the lowest corner and use a car jack to jack up that corner, then reinforce the foundation with another brick or limestone screening? if I remove the top slab, and just try to lift the corner of the column which is 8 layers of 4 bricks each which would be about 1000lbs total. Obviously I'm not lifting the weight of the entire column, but just one corner. Would this work?

What is up with my Cherokee purple.

All my other tomatoes plants look like they are strong and thriving. However the only one I am having issues with is my Cherokee purple. Its growing but at a slower rate. The leaves always have looked like this, heavily curled down. They do not spread out nicely like all my other varieties.

Is this normal for Cherokee purple? Is this plant shot? Should I even put it into the ground? I do have a couple extra subs growing that I can replace with.
