It's sad, but there are many websites like this all over the Internet
People have created them somewhere in 1997 and they absolutely don't care anymore. Maybe suggest them a bit of facelift, ah?

His page is stuck in 1997
These pages are viewed best with Microsoft Explore. Some versions of Netscape will not play the background sounds

I don't see anything wrong with the old style websites, my blog is a flat html site.
Some modern sites people create are just overloaded with crap that doesn't have any value. Another site of mine is a good example of this.I could tell you a joke about UDP. But I'm not sure you would get it!

The site reminds me of what many of the Geocities and Angelfire sites look like.

Knock it all you want, but unlike the vast majority of websh!tes out there that offer nothing but rehashed old cr@p designed to sucker you onto the page, simply to drive you out through one of the adsense links as quickly as possible, at least 5 years on this guy's still updating his little baby for the benefits of his visitors.

A lot of people thinks the design is not the most important thing in the site.
