Fine Amish Food - pitty about the site

While working on a bug at work, www.amishfinefood.com turned up in industry ranking results. Now I don’t claim to be familiar with traditional Amish cuisine, but there a few wtf’s here:
- What’s up with the loading-splash-horse-thingy?
- indexx.php [sic] ????
- <marquee> tags! run!
- Never rely on images alone for navigation: http://www.amishfinefood.com/indexx.php/? (unless, of course, you can degrade gracefully)
- If basic gist of the Amish way is to shun technology of all forms, just wtf are these guys doing on the Internet?
- While may have been reluctantly into the use of the Internets as a distribution channel, do the really need to take the
amatuer, wtf-are-standards, totally shite‘traditional’ approach to web development? - Try doing a search for a product called ‘%’… I didn’t know SQL Injection was traditional Amish fare!
- I guess expecting SSL for credit card transactions is just pushing things too far.

That would have to be the saddest thing I’ve seen since the t-shirt ‘kill me, I’m Amish’. Go easy on them though. Beating up on that site is like punching the shit out of a retarded kid in a wheelchair. Sure it’s great fun, but there’s that nagging feeling in the back of your mind that it’s somehow unfair.
