What makes a wide post? (Technical question)

Please take a look at this link elsewhere on Fearless Friday. 

Using Safari on a Mac, the original post (and entire first page) are wider than my standard default browser page.  I'm assuming there is something about that first post that causes this. 

What is weird though is when I went to the second page, this phenomena stopped occurring.  Even though I quoted the OP from the first page in a quote box on the second page, the second page appears at the normal width. 

As someone who tries to use SMF code in their postings, I'd like to make sure I don't cause this issue when I post.  Could it have been the links in the OP that caused this?

Thanks.

The url ilnks in this post are causing it.

The problem with those really long links. If I set the maximum width, it would break those links when it reached that maximum and bled over to a new line. It is a pain in the shorts but if you don't know how to hide the url and insert 'Click me' or something else, there's no way around it.
