Some cosmetic enhancements

There, I think setting the main blog font as a sans-serif makes it easier to read. I have also set the print-friendly page to a serif font, since according to design manuals serif is easier to read in print.

Personally, I prefer serif fonts. "Support Your Local Serif", I always say.

Why no, I have no shame at all. Why do you ask?

There's just no pleasing some people. (Actually -- full disclosure -- I was the one having trouble seeing it. I didn't want to make the main font a full twelve-point size, because... well, I didn't want to. So I changed it to Verdana. You can still get your serif needs met on the print-friendly page.)

Looks good.
Readable.
I like it.

I have always found sans-serif easier to read on-screen, while I think serifs look nicer on paper. You've made a good choice--your site already looks cleaner to me.
