    Hey just wanted to offer you a brief heads up. The words within your article
    are running off of the screen in Chrome. I’m unclear if it is a formatting
    issue or something related to browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to inform you.
    The design look great though! I do hope you have the problem solved soon. Kudos
