Actually, you can have as many WP blogs as you like, however, they would each need to be installed separately with a different prefix in the DB.
Create a database (call it 'wordpress' if you like), then for each of your WP powered blogs, open the wp-config-sample.php file and change the prefix (i.e. 'wp_') to something different for each blog, like wp2_, wp3_, and so forth, making sure to leave the database information the same.
The drawback would be that you cannot manage each blog from a single WP admin area.
WordPress also has a multi-user software called
WPMU which allows for multiple installations. The software is still in beta and it's a good idea to have some technical knowledge.
If that's still out of your scope, there is a plugin called
Multiply. It's important to note that because Multiply is a plugin that changes table structures, it may make upgrading to future installations of WordPress a pain in the butt.
However, if you're looking for blogging software that has multi-blog capabilities built in, then you'd want to look into a
Movable Type or
Expression Engine license (pMachine Pro is still free, however, it's not actively being developed and support is limited).
Also,
b2evolution (branched from b2; WP is also branched from b2) allows for multiple blogs, but from what I can tell, the spam fighting is still lacking.
Hope that gives you some ideas
