I never thought I would have trouble trying to fit everything I want to say on just one page. I have to summarise half a dissertation and it's tough! The spacing between the lines is already 1.0 and size 12 (Times New Roman) is the minimum. :(
Are you allowed to use Arial Narrow?

Nope, I should have mentioned that it has to be Times New Roman. :( I can't move the margins beyond 2,5 cm on all sides either.

Usually it's the other way round, all through high school I struggled to meet the minimum requirements when writing an essay or taking exams. :mb lol:
I found this...but you probably already did it.  :eyeroll:

Thanks Mags  :hug:

One thing I should do is edit with no mercy. Now I just gotta figure out how to chop these sentences up and remove a few bits here and there.

If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Remember, your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.

...Anyways, speaking of parties, I'm going to a party, right now. I'm bringing Buffalo wings or Buffalo chicken wing...I know, if you're from another country, good luck figuring out what that means.  :eyeroll: Buffalos don't have wings.
--My buffalo chicken wings are sooooooo good, I wish I could share them with Bruno de la Pole:smilenod: I made them for my mother-in-law.

I'm also bringing Tacos de Lengua, with cilantro, cebolla, salsa roja de Chile de Arbol, y limonsito.  They are sooooooo good! I wish I could share those with Crow. He would really appreciate them.

In this case, to hell with Crow, I wish that you could share them with me.  Yummmm!!

I cannot believe I forgot to tell you about one of the coolest things regarding my surgery. The doctor used dissolving stitches on the inside, which is only to be be expected. However, to close the incision in my skin, he didn't used stitches or staples, he used medical grade Super Glue. It holds extraordinarily well and allows you more flexibility after surgery than stitches or staples. As the incision heals, the glue flakes off. No extra visit to the doctor for removal. No extra pathway for bugs to get into the incision and cause infection. It is quite remarkable.

I don't know where this (very tasty) dish originated.  :headscratch:
