Hi there, There's no doubt that your blog could possibly be having internet browser compatibility issues. Whenever I take a look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in I.E., it's got some overlapping issues. I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Besides that, excellent site!

Next time I read a blog, I hope that it does not fail me as much as this one. I mean, Yes, it was my choice to read, but I really thought you would probably have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of complaining about something you can fix if you were not too busy searching for attention.

Iím impressed, I must say. Rarely do I come across a blog thatís both equally educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy I came across this in my hunt for something relating to this.

I don't know whether it's just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering problems with your blog.
It seems like some of the text on your content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know
if this is happening to them too? This might be a problem with my web browser because I've had this happen before.
Thanks
