Well, you can't really do a *blah* without arranging your index appropriately (n-grams come to mind). Queries of this form are really, really expensive.
You can do leading and trailing wildcards (i.e. *blah or blah*), but even leading wildcards require some changes to your schema... The short answer is that you can do these things, but they won't work out of the box, you have to arrange for them to occur.
