As a firm believer in Murphy’s Law, buying Murphy’s Ladder just seems to be asking for trouble.

Another shitty ladder toy.
Not sure why storage is such a concern.
Get a Werner #300 fiberglass ladder and be done with it.
Yes, #300, so you can carry shit up the ladder without buckling the rungs.

Cris has a good point, but “Free chipping!”

Might this collapsible ladder’s name be derived from the hideaway Murphy bed?
I’m covered in the ladder department (last guy working at my branch when it closed down, told to ‘toss’ all the tools and gear… I picked up the best of the lot and stuffed my garage), but that was a funny commercial!

A foldable ladder that stores away AND can help me fight Rey Mysterio?
Sign me up. 👍🏻😆

The best ladder is one you use successfully. I have one of the Little Giant models, with all the attachments. It really works well. But it’s heavy and getting heavier. And honestly, I am not all thrilled about being at the top of an 18-foot ladder any more, even if I can place it where I want it. And if I need to use it indoors, I have to haul it in from the garage.
So even though I am well served in ladders, the Murphy has some interest for me. They are not inexpensive. But I could store one in the main floor closet easily. And it’s rated at 375 pounds, not your wimpy 300 pounder, Ghost.
I guess I could sell off some of the ladders I haven’t used in years. My Mexican neighbor across the street with the painting business might want some. And such a politically incorrect ad practically deserves my support.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
