Unable to open a MS-Word doent?

I have a MS-Word doent (.doc) which I saved yesterday. When I tried to open it today, I get the message " SELECT THE ENCODING THAT MAKES THE DOENT READABLE". I tried almost all the encoding options that were displayed but nothing seems to work. Some wired characters are displayed instead of the text I typed yesterday. Can someone please advice how to recover the contents of my original doent ?

When I was crossing the street a driver revved the engine at me and then laughed whn I jumpd should I reprt it?

I wanted to cross the street. I was all alone. It was day time, in a residential neighborhood. A black SUV came up the street. I waited to see if it would stop for me. It did, so I crossed. In the SUV was two guys, about early 20's. When I was right in the middle of the street, the driver revved the engine and the SUV started forward quickly about 2 feet, as if they were going to run me over. I jumped and froze out of fear. The guys looked at me and laughed. I crossed the street quickly, then I looked back at them angrily. I saw their license plate. They stopped and laughed at me. One of them said "hi" then they sped away, laughing. I was very mad at this. Drivers shouldn't scare pedestrians like that. Should I report something like that to the police or let it go? I'm not sure, but I did feel threatened and disrespected.

Does anyone else hate 'text speak'?

Yes, I do. It makes sense to use contractions and abbreviations when you have a limited keyboard or are being charged per word, but there is no excuse otherwise! I am a lecturer at an FE college, and some of my younger students even hand in course work written in txt speak!
