Today’s Cryptogram

IOHDH BDHL'I BLU YDHBI CHL. IOHDH BDH ESPI YDHBI QOBRRHLYHP IOBI XDTFLBDU CHL RFWH UXS BLT CH BDH NXDQHT GU QFDQSCPIBLQHP IX CHHI. —-MFRRFBC OBRPHU ED

Today’s CG is courtesy of the Arkansas Gazette.

Another quotation from a great person, that can easily be a description of our beloved PRESIDENT.

You can find this little fun word game, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications.

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.

Maybe 1 min, as fast as I could go.
Get the contraction; the letter E; the first word; off to the races.

Good Morning!
2 Minutes.
Last letter of contraction opened the eleventh word and the rest is history!

About 3 min. Got the contraction, got the “e” s, then finish.

As fast as I can type. Finding the last letter of the contraction opens it up.

Couldn’t quite get with it, 9 min, false start, even with a correct suffix.
