Today’s Cryptogram

SZ OHZ AG BNH NSINHMB ENDYDEBHY DZX ZAKWHMB IHZSRM BNHYH SM BA KH GARZX DZ SZMDBSDKWH XHMSYH GAY NAZARY, EAOODZX, UAFHY, DZX IWAYT. ---ESEHYA

Today’s quotation very easily can pertain to our president.

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.

PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and any tips you might give the group on how you solve these puzzles as puzzle solvers love to hear how you made out.

You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram.


TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS: brain; cryptogram; puzzle; todayscryptogram
If you're just starting out on these, be patient, as you'll be proficient in no time.

Solving the puzzle under 8 minutes is good, under 6 very good, under 4 excellent and under 2 "you're a pro!"

If you need a little help you can copy the cryptogram and paste it to Hal’s Helper below:

You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper.

Interesting quote. Right on with Trump.
I figured the 4th word which led to the three 2 letter words in a row. Very quick after that

2:45.

The same first three letters of the fourth and tenth words, led me those, which brought out the fifth word. From there, it was a matter of filling in the rest of the words.

Quick one, not sure I agree 100% with the author, Absolutism has that effect on me. Placed the e, the rest followed in ~3 minutes.

Enjoyed solving it. One word jumped out and it led to the author’s name. Pretty fast after that.
