    Hanging a mirror

    I went back to first holes, got the screw in the plug perfect, I sort of snapped the end off the plug that didn't go all the way in, but put the screw in there anyway nice n tight n it seems solid, so I've managed to hang the mirror n I think it's solid......does this sound safe to u burnerman???
