No nix that

Okay, I've rethought things and I probably won't post that many photos. Rather, I'll link directly to whatever photo hosting service when I add more pictures.

So, that just leaves me with posting about my life, the people in it and things I think are cool.

Me, I'm looking for a decent stroller for my daughter now. Right now we've got a Snap N Go with our car seat, but the wheels are plastic (even the tires) with no bearings in them.

When she grows old enough to use a regular stroller, I'm looking into getting something with decent wheel bearings, pneumatic tires and preferrably light weight, and folds compactly. The problem is that there are few decent models available in the US.

This is what I've been looking at:

• the Bebe Confort High Trek which seems relatively new, the Trophy Air 4 or 6, or Everest
• the Jane Powertrack (sorry, can't find a direct link to the manufacturer)
• the Quinny Speedi SX or the Freestyle 3XL
• the BOB Revolution

The problems with these all is that they don't really fold that compactly- usually they fold the bars down and maybe swing the front and rear wheels together, but they don't fold laterally. They are usually still the same width when folded.

Obviously, I'd appreciate any other suggestions for good strollers, especially ones I can get in the US.

Nope, no photos yet

As usual, the first version of this posting got lost since I'm still figuring out how to use this, but I'll forge on.

This is where I get to set the tone for the rest of this blog and let the reader know what to expect (though that should also go in the description.

This started since though I have a homepage, I never really updated it partially since editing it over a telnet connection is tedious and I'm not all that great editing html, especially in vi.

More recently, I've needed to post some photos that I've taken. Yeah, I know, I should just use a photo hosting site for that, but I'm thinking that I'm planning on posting more text that photos. Thus, I'm here at a blog site that also lets me post photos (for free!)

So, this blog is where I'll post about people in my life (especially my daughter), things I'm interested in and general cool things.

As they say: enjoy...
