    My question is because I've seen how strongly the mirror was engineered and installed. That speaks of either it had to be done that way because of it's weight and original design -- or because it might persist for a longer period of time after the 50th.

    The wand did that.

I hate it when the damage the castle that way, just so they can stick a bunch of nick nacks all over the castle for a celebration they shouldn't have been celebrating to begin with!! It seems sacriligious to mangle and maime a castle like that. I'm sure they'll fill in the holes in the walls, too, but still it isn't necessary to do all that in the first place.

    ORGOCH: Heck! By the time Walt Dizzy Whirl comes ta celebrate it's own 50th bathday, the castle's gonna' be like a big ol' tower a swiss cheese, what with all them holes they keep drillin' inta the thing!

    Yep, while you've got the giant crane out-- wheel it down the road and do us all a huge service -- tear down the wand and drag the hat to a location more suited for it --
