Here's as far as I was able to get using CK Ng's suggestion:
function phptemplate_preprocess_node(&$vars, $hook) {
//try to remove 'blog_usernames_blog' from links array
$vars['links'] = unset($links[0]);
}
it throws this error on the template.php page:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_UNSET
As I said, writing php from scratch is difficult for me. Am I even on the
right track?
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for your responses CK Ng and J. Sint Jago!
I don't think my PHP skills are good enough to write the necessary function
from scratch. However, I'm usually able to modify existing examples.
CK, Based on your response to Sebastian and the reading on Drupal.org, it
seems I need to add phptemplate_preprocess_node() to template.php. But I'm
not sure exactly how its supposed to be written.
Using the Devel Mod I got the following info (or see attached screenshot):
---
parents: node.tlp.php < page.tlp.php
function called: theme_links()
Candidates Function names: myTheme_links < phptemplate_links < theme_links
Next it lists 2 arrays for the theme_links() function. Those elements are:
links array & attributes array
The links array has 3 elements, the first of which is the array I don't want
to display: blog_usernames_blog
----
I think that's all of the information I need, but I'm still not sure what to
do next, or where to find an example of the code to modify and insert into
template.php to keep it from showing blog_usernames_blog.
I'm stuck, any further suggestions?

brendan,
You can use template preprocessor. See my latest reply on "Re: how to stop a
'view' from showing a field?"

Hello,
I can't seem to figure out how to effectively target two different values in
my node-blog.tpl.php file:
$submitted
$links
For the $submitted value, I'd like to insert some xhtml tags in there so
that I can target them with CSS.
Currently it writes the data to the page like this:
---
Submitted by super_user on April 9, 2009 - 2:49pm
---
But I'd like to get some xhtml tags around the User and the Month. It would
also be nice if I could delete the hour - but that's not as important.
For the $links value, I'd like to figure out how to remove the Author.
Currently, the $links value writes:"Author's Blog", "Read More...", and "Add
comments" to the teaser. How do I remove just the "Authors blog" info from
the $links value?
Unfortunately, I know enough PHP to get myself confused a lot, and I've been
googling and searching Drupal.org all day with no luck.
Hopefully the nice folks on this list can help!!
