Wulf (aka "Dick", aka "Derrick"),
I just stumbled on ApeChild.com. Hilarious, stupendous, two thumbs up! It was like stepping back into the past and reading a National Lampoon parody. Good fast loading site. Clean, uncluttered design. I see you are a co-founder. Did you do any/all of the design work?

Funny little "ticklers" around every turn, even on the homepage, hidden with the HTML. If you view the source code, there's a comment within the <head> tags that say's "Hey! Why don't you go look at someone else's HTML. Get out of here!". Great! humor even in the parts that most folks never even see.

It's setup just like any nice commercial site with a "Mission Statement", "Investor Relations", "Privacy Policy", "Contact Info", "Testimonials & Letters", etc., but with a "twist". For example, check out their Privacy Policy (http://www.apechild.com/about/privacy.htm) for a good laugh.

Thanks for the laughs Wulf -- made my day.

Terry - thanks, but I must warn you - you're in big trouble now! Once you enter into the realm of the ApeChild, you will never be free again! ;)

In accordance with our privacy policy, your comments will be posted in our testimonials section. :p I'm glad you found it entertaining, but I'll be honest, sometimes I worry about what "outsiders" might think.

Thanks for the kind words. My friend Bill is a professional web designer so he did almost all the technical work. I merely helped write some of the content and take some pictures. The blades section, however, is MINE! ALL MINE!
