His surname is rather similar to his street name. Probably faked. I used to have three domain names, all with fake names and addresses, mainly to stop people finding out my real life identity.

I'm not certain, but it looks like a page that's
nothing more
than a Google adsense ad. In other words, Mr. Caliendo
seems to be trying to make a few dollars by buying near
miss domains and redirecting visitors to an ad.

If it's Google adsense, you'd think Google would remove it after a complaint.

But it's possible that it' more sneaky than that. The
script is obfuscated.

domain name from perhaps?

What you can do is stop enabling javascript willy nilly.
Use something like NoScript and only allow script to run
when necessary, and then only from specific domains
that need to use it.

I've never actually had anything nasty happen to my computer. I think between my browser, AV, firewall, adblockers, malware protection program, something always stops it. And usually such a site is only clicked on if you're daft enough to click a link in a dodgy email, which I don't. This was very unusual, in that my local council had misspelt something.

I would never click something like that if I just had
anti-virus or other "protection". The only protection is
to disable script, Flash, Java, or anything else executable
online.

But don't loads of legitimate sites need those? I'd end up with constant pestering "do you want to enable Java" notices. Youtube uses Flash for example. Many pages use Flash.
