So Long Wand

It is finally happening.  I just got an email that officially states the wand at Spaceship Earth is coming down starting next week.  The plan is that it will be completley removed by Epcot's 25th anniversary in October (Even though the attraction will be under refurbishment until mid-November.

With this age old rumor finally coming true, is it possible that tomorrow the Disney-MGM Studios will change its name while announcing Star Tours 2?  Is Beastly Kingdom currently under construction?  Is the Matterhorn collapsing?  You won't believe what they just found frozen underneath the Partners statue.

Well thanks to new Epcot VP Jim McPhee for making an overdue change to the park's weenie.  You've deffinatley gotten some brownie points
