To me, that URL tells a delightful children’s story…

FlashSubContent = a wonderful fantasy world
[elephant] id = 11654 [Dumbo]
[elephant] parentID = 320 [Mrs. Jumbo]
[cage] FolderID = 340 [because they took her Dumbo away, and Mrs. Jumbo got angry, so she had to get locked up]
aspx = evil clown makeup wearing Microsoft employees who locked Dumbo’s mother up
