Call me Chu Yeow, or just Chu, btw :) Good stuff Sam :)

I agree 100% about all of them in fact! The comment form is ugly as sin, but I broke all my nice CSS form layout and that will have to wait till tomorrow. The other stuff should hopefully be fixed by the time you read this... Not offended at all - grateful for the feedback. I agree 100% about all of them in fact!

Looks great in fact! Some suggestions, if I may - don't be offended! The main column text needs a little more padding against the faux column IMHO - looking a little too tight for comfort. The comments textarea need a little more width. In fact, this reminds me to go increase the width of the one at my weblog! :D Also, having your "Related Entries" section in white and boxed makes it seem like the focus of the blog post, and draws away from the actual entry itself. Ah it looks good now. Looks great in fact!

To be sure, I reloaded and also viewed the page in IE. You may want to check on that.
