Stairways are a functional tool to get from down here to up there where the toilet and sex are.
They let you avoid swinging on a vine like Tarzan, or climbing a ladder with beer and snacks.
But they are pretty boring unless you use a little imagination, think outside the box.
One word of advice… ok, five words… DO NOT GET A PERMIT.
If you screw up and do get a permit, you must have a defibrillator handy when the inspector comes.
Trust me, you could be charged with manslaughter.
