    I just set it aside and bought another one. Haven't really looked at it yet. If that's all it is, maybe I should just take the other ladder back. Kind of scary that a tiny rivet is all that's holding me though.

    My one year old picked one up by the tail yesterday, and he didn't get stung. Didn't even know it was possible to pick one up that way..... Momma freaked out and beat the crap out of it with a hot wheels car.

    I've had the Andy Griffith tune pop into my head for the last two weeks. I don't remember one sticking for that long really....and it sneaks up on you too. Bastard.

    Don?t trust that ladder unless you know why that rivet broke. It could be a bad batch of material in the rivers or it could be a manufacturing defect.
    New ladder is cheaper that a single ER trip.
