May 17

6:40 I personally believe that wearing dentures especially using adhesive is guaranteed for developing diabetes. As for the article, bad teeth come from a poor nutrition period.

6:43 Jumping peas!

8:15 Tenisul, un fel de balet (sorele și tenisul).
1:27 It is confirmed. In the last weeks he only left (the "man upstairs" when the market went up.

7:00 A few days ago i discovered these sacks with soda cans on the balconies next building. Two gigantic sacks with wet soda cans that ferment and put out the nastiest smell, mold and bacteria. Watch the symmetry. I uploaded the image in drive hoping they will understand but no they didn't so now i have to put the image here. I believe together with the dust, wet floor, stinking garbage, it's got something to do with me being sick for so long time

10:10 One of the many blunders that at Microsoft always translates in rip-offs is Wordpad/Word dualism. They give you for free included in Windows a pretty good word processing app which is wordpad, which may be good enough to build a resume by example, but when you're done you can't save it in .doc or word format. Instead they got this compromise, .rtf or rich text format (rich is for free) which allows you to save your work, send it to someone or migrate it to word (and it didn't change in decades or since i know about). One thing wordpad doesn't do is spellchecking.

One thing you can do of course is buy Office. Or buy a one year subscription whatever. Which may cost more than Windows itself that usually is included with the PC by the manufacturer. Also. You may get more that you wanted for. Word is complicated, clumsy and hard to use even for expert users.

However there is free online or live simplified Word that may help you do just that. But online word does not import or export to rtf. So all you can do is copy/paste in live word, do your spellcheck and paste it back to original file, but you may loose some formatting in the processes. So best is (what i did) is do the spellcheck online and then make the corrections the old fashion manual way. .rtf file name is weird and most people will raise their eyebrow. What is this? Is it safe to open? And in the end it may give you surprises like misalignment when printing. One workaround is using pdf files (portable document format from Adobe) and see the result. You print on a pd file, check the result, can send the file as pdf which is a well known type, can print it later on paper anywhere without worries.
