  No, you cannot post to a page. You can use your “bulletproof” page to link to the post, or even multiple posts.

  First, though, I really recommend that you work through this tutorial to get acquainted with this WordPress.com platform:
  http://learn.wordpress.com/

  Now, to your question.
  Here is an excellent article about why you cannot post to a page:
  http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/06/30/posts-on-pages/
  (be sure to read the preliminary links Panos provides:
  post categories
  and
  post vs page )
  The article links to how to make a custom menu. Read that, and there is also a wp.com support article about custom menus:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  I hope all these links don’t overwhelm you—we were all beginners once, and because wp.com has so many options and possibilities it may seem daunting. Just go one step at a time…
