This is the entrance to my website. There's nothing particularly stunning or eye-catching yet - just an overview of the site's contents.

The other areas contain descriptions of the pages contained within those areas.

I recently received a letter from the bank. In a part of the letter, the bank indicated that its goal was to exceed my expectations. I think that is fine if the bank wants to have that as its goal or one of its goals. But the bank, or any business, should not tell the customer that it is going to exceed the customer's expectations. Because the moment it tells the customer that, then that is what the customer expects. So if the customer expects his expectations to be exceeded, how can a business exceed that expectation? It is just going to spiral out of control.

That has nothing to do with anything else on my website, so I just put it here for now.
