It's 0.25/0.50 which means that he can have just about any two cards when calling preflop but usually has something when he goes nuts on the flop/turn.

I have played very little 0.25/0.50 but given that he went nuts w/bottom pair, no draw, I'm not gonna assume any rationality from the average player in the future. Btw, he was 25/5/0.7 after about 100 hands.

Well then using this hand as a basis for reading hands on this guy seems like a very very dangerous thing to do. When you're developing your reads don't take the one hand they play like a maniac as an indicator for their overall play.

I know of some guys that always play the first hand or 2 like a maniac when they sit down to establish an image. It's funny because it's microstakes, which means most people won't even notice and the ones that do will adapt quickly. So, all you do is waste a bunch of money every time you sit down at a table and then have to make that up with meta.
