A bit of advice. Tidy it up. Use descriptive titles rather than
poetic. Get shot of the music. Make it much, much easier to navigate.
Group items together in subjects.

Why would anyone read "OHH NOOO!!!, MR. BILL - Why I Don't Do It That
Way" Who's Bill? What does he do? It's not a novel with chapters.
It's a reference that people want to use but can't.

Last time I went back to have a look to see if there was new stuff, it
was almost impossible to find and separate from the stuff I'd seen. So I
gave up. I've not been back in a long time.

Currently, it looks My First Website(tm). The sort of thing we all did
many years ago when learning HTML, experimenting with it's features and
"tricks" and notepade.exe was the best web page editor around.

The biggest mistake of all is the lack of proper styling on the links.
If you want to style your links from the bog standard blue underline,
then for gods sake set a different colour for the visited option.

....after every click. It's so damn stupid and irritating. After 2 mouse
clicks you don't want to look here anymore.

You haven't figured out yet that Gary is a weirdo?

Why don't you click on your speaker icon and mute your speakers? Not to
hard.

Why the **** would any sane, rational person write a web page that
FORCES the reader to take action because the web page shoves loud music
down everyone's throat?

The fact is, no sane or rational person would write such a web page.

That you think we should all accommodate that weirdo's problems in life,
speaks volumes about you.
