No read more thingy anywhere...

[vij]

I dont have thje "read more" thingy on my "home page post" or "category section".
I guess it has something to do with page_blog.php from what I gathered reading around.
This is what I have currently on page_blog.php
I have not touched it. Its the default file. Please help!

<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content">

	<div id="contentleft">
	
		<div class="postarea">
	
		<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/breadcrumb.php");?>
				
			<?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("cat=".get_theme_mod('blog_cat')."&showposts=".get_theme_mod('blog_cat_num')."&paged=$page"); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
            
			<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
				
			<div class="date">
			
				<div class="dateleft">
					<p><span class="time"><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?></span> <?php _e("by", 'studiopress'); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> &nbsp;<?php edit_post_link(__('(Edit)', 'studiopress'), '', ''); ?> <br /> <?php _e("Filed under", 'studiopress'); ?> <?php the_category(', ') ?></p>
