Thank you very much and God bless you.

You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications. I challenge us with the best ones out there.

The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogr)am).

Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.

PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.

You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!

I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.

You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.

I don’t do these. But my Dad does. He’s done them so long he will simply look at it for a minute or two and then simply write the entire answer. He’s over 80 yrs. old - but a Trump 80, not a Biden 80. 😃

PS I’ve been trying to get him to go on Wheel of Fortune for years. 😂

PPS Yeah my Dad is kind of a genius. But also a regular guy. Grew up hard. Retired military. Lots of common sense. Glad I’m almost as smart as him. Obviously on our side. 😃

That meme is exactly what I thought of when I solved it. (I didn’t look at the meme until after.)

If they’re on the same team, then one of them is in the wrong place.

Otherwise, GAME OVER (sorta)
