Out with the Old?

I'm trying out new blog templates. I don't know, what do you think? I go back and forth between the "stretch" templates--a nice wide alley for text, but do we really want text all the way across a wide screen?--and regular templates, which seem a little squished in the middle.

I'm still working on/contemplating it, so don't be surprised if you see my "look" change several times over the next few days.
