#1074 - Too big column length for column 'entry' (max = 255). Use BLOB instead

What'sa BLOB? &how do I fix it? In simple terms because my brain is a little... Eh at the moment.
Oh, and this is what I was trying to do....

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br />CREATE TABLE `entries` (<br />  `id` varchar(10) default NULL,<br />  `title` varchar(250) default NULL,<br />  `date` varchar(50) default NULL,<br />  `entry` varchar(50000) default NULL,<br />  `commentstatus` varchar(1) default NULL,<br />  `entrystatus` varchar(1) default NULL<br />) ENGINE=MyISAM;<br /><br />INSERT INTO `entries` VALUES ('1', 'Testing Installation', 'July 19th 2005', 'Default entry, if you are seeing this, then your installation was successful.

Please check back later.', 'Entry Offline!');<br /><br />CREATE TABLE `comments` (<br />  `id` varchar(10) default NULL,<br />  `comment_id` varchar(10) default NULL,<br />  `name` varchar(100) default NULL,<br />  `email` varchar(100) default NULL,<br />  `comments` varchar(10000) default NULL<br />) ENGINE=MyISAM;<br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

varchar columns can only be up to 255 characters in length. You should use the type BLOB instead.

Okay, new errors now! Yay... -.-U Proves I've got zero idea what I'm doing.

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax.  Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '(50000) default NULL,
  `commentstatus` varchar(1) default NUL

Don't pass a size along with BLOB--just do "'entry' BLOB default NULL".
