the initial admin user cannot have permissions on blogs. it is intended not as 
a "person" but as a "root" account for the entire lyceum system. however, as 
such it is can create and manage any and all content on all blogs on the 
system, so in the default state has the behavior you seek. however you are 
right, you will have to create a dummy user for each blog you create. creating 
no-user blogs is somethign i hadn' ttought about but it a simple feature. make 
a ticket for it :)
