I didn't feel a thing here in HB at all! I do have a question though: Is that only 1/8" glass? If that width of the glass is more than 24" and only 1/8" glass with (what looks like) heavier mugs, (ie: vintage skull mug, the beachcomber mug, bosko's mug, bali hai mug), which themselves are about 1-3/4 to 2 pounds a piece plus whatever other mugs you had on it to add to the stress, then it just might have been an accident ready to happen. Maybe. Were there only 2 pins on each side holding the weight too without any middle support? Just something to think about before that top shelf goes. In any case, Shecky should be rebuilt as best as possible. Don't bury him! Just my 2 coconuts worth.
