 * I’ve having a tiny issue with the sidebar in my custom theme. On the main front
   page, long bits of text are wrapping down into another line. On a comment or 
   permanent link page however, the text remains straight across in one line, as
   I want it. Here are some picture examples:
 * [wrong](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a324/smash11/sub/wrapping.jpg)
    Note
   how “Desiree on Picture This” and “Everyone Says I Love You” stretch into two
   lines
 * [right](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a324/smash11/sub/straight.jpg)
    While
   here those phrases only take up one line, which is how I want it
 * I’m sure there’s a really easy fix for this, I just can’t determine where in 
   the style.css file I need to make changes.
 * My WordPress is located at [thedrewseum.com](http://www.thedrewseum.com)

 * Looks fine on my computer (MacBook on Firefox) and the problem above doesn’t 
   happen.

 * I see you have fixed it with css but better just disabled WP default widgets 
   style for the recents comments. Add the following code inside functions.php (
   Design > Theme editor > functions.php )
 *     ```
       if ( is_active_widget('wp_widget_recent_comments') ){
          remove_filter('wp_head', 'wp_widget_recent_comments_style', 10, 1);
       }
       ```

 * Hmm unfortunately that didn’t fix the problem. It does look ok in Firefox, it’s
   just in IE that it’s doing this.

 * I’m still having this problem & in some cases, they’re now stretching out to 
   3 lines! I’m desperate for some help. Again, it’s only viewable in IE.
