How do I delete a wordpress domain?

I’d like to delete a wordpress blog site created a few years back. How do I delete it?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Provided you are logged in under the Admin username account that registered the blog in question you can delete any blog registered under that username by using these instructions. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
After you do that if you cannot locate a verification email, look in your email client spam/junk mail filter for the email with the blog deletion verification link in it and click that link. If clicking it does not work then copy and paste the link into your upper browser bar and click.
Deleted blog URLs are not recycled. If you delete a blog URL it can not be used by you or by anyone else again. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
You may want to make it private instead http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/ -
TimeThief, thanks for responding so quickly. Actually it’s another blog and the previous admin of that I can’t get a hold of which is a huge problem for me. So in short, I don’t have any access to the E-mail account that was used to register that blogsite.
Btw, your icon totally looks like Malory Archer. :-)

Blogs are not owned by companies, organizations or groups. They are owned solely by the username account that registered the blog.
You will need to contact the owner of the blog on your own and request that your username account be added as an Admin of the blog you want to own.

Then original username account and Admin of the blog who owns it can transfer ownership of the blog to your username account.
