trying to submit a paper late with the corressponding, and I might add, "convenient " excuse, huh?:D

Set the computer date to "blah." Install word, paste document content from another computer into that word document.

BINGO.

or if you have text pad open the file as raw data and manually change the date. You never know what tricks MS may have hidden to prevent such ocassions.
