Stupid Venetian blinds

I'd like to remove my blinds and give them a thorough cleaning.  Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to remove them from the top piece.  It's entirely different than the ones I had over at the house.  I really have no desire to clean them one slat at a time with them hanging in place, but it looks like I may have to do it that way.  At least they're only in four windows.  
Google led me to this statement:  "Assemblies for venetian blinds vary, and you may have to use a screwdriver for this step."
I may use a shotgun before this is over.
Before I give up, I'll have Cliff look at them tomorrow.
Have any of you had this problem?  


Here's a closeup picture looking down into the top left side of the assembly.  Yes, it's filthy.  


Here's the right side.  
Now that I think about it, it might be easier to just go buy new blinds.
