Today's Cryptogram: No hints.

SGPQ EXTICE BL OGF'L OBDE EG SGP. KMXE SGP FG KBEM BE BL SGPQ OBDE AXHU EG OGF. TIG APLHXOTBX

Our last puzzle:

NOTHING IN LIFE IS MORE EXHILARATING AS TO BE SHOT AT WITHOUT RESULT. WINSTON CHURCHILL


TOPICS: Chit/Chat; Hobbies; Miscellaneous; Music/Entertainment
KEYWORDS: brain; cryptogram; puzzle; todayscryptogram
You can find this little fun word game, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications, unfortunately they are copyrighted so we can't use them here. So, we're just going to make up our own.

The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example:

AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram)

Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated.

If you can solve this under 8 minutes you're good. Under 5 minutes is very good. Under 3 excellent. Under 2 minutes, exceptional.

If you need a little help you can copy the cryptogram and paste it here:

It’s easier to work on it without having to use your pencil.

Let me know if you want on or off our Cryptogram Ping List.

That’s really nifty. Makes the puzzle easier to solve without having to go between phone and paper.

Please add me to your ping list.

Today’s puzzle has some interesting clues. The first 3 letter word is repeated, and we also see these first 3 letters in a 4 letter word.

You have to two 2 letter words in succession which should give you a clue that the first letter of each is an “i”.

Most likely... But “at an impasse” would present the same circumstance.
