Looking at your page source, I see that you're not 'scaffolding' correctly. 
Go to http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/scaffolding.html.

Use class="row-fluid" not "row". Within "row-fluid" put "container". Within 
"container" put your span columns (they need to equal 
12. class="span4", class="span4", class="span4" = 12). If you have 1 
column, use class="span12"

An easy way to figure this out is to download one of the example sites from 
http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/getting-started.html to see how it is 
put together.

And DON'T modify bootstrap.css or bootstrap-responsive.css. Use a 
custom.css to override the bootstrap styles. Use Safari's develop menu or 
Firefox's Firebug to help you. The only time I've had to modify the 
afore-mentioned stylesheets was due to form element widths (someone please 
explain THAT).
