But let's look at the cache.Here it is right here.And here are the historical records, which indicate that the domain is still owned by Mr Abraham of Florida.
And here's the site info.
And here is the text from the bottom of the cached site - a site which contains the amusing video entitled, "Modern Warfare 3 Sucks".
