    sorry for the long title. i have never changed the font on any of my blogs, yet the first 3 entries are appearing large, while the most recent 2 are normal.

    when i got to edit the large-fonted posts, and hit “preview” they appear normal, yet when i go to my dashbaord and hit “view site” they are large.

    confused ?????

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    That’s a typical problem when someone pastes stuff in from Word or from elsewhere in the Web. What’s happening is, you’re picking up opening tags, but not closing ones, so they effect all the posts after the tag you’ve picked up. In this case, I’d look at the code for your post here:

    I don’t come up with my slang

    As you can see, the categories are large. Edit it, click to the HTML tab, look somewhere around where the picture is and take out the extra Span tag that is making this bigger. And don’t paste from the web or Word again; it’s going to lead to problems, always.

    no, the “li” tag enlarges my font, so I can’t use it
    this isn’t cut and paste

    @marylikesbagels: raincoaster is right. When older posts show up wrong, it’s always bad code from the newer post that affects them in the main page (but not when you view a single post). Go to the visual editor for “I don’t come up with my slang”, highlight all the content, click the “Remove formatting” button, click Update Post.
