Today’s Cryptogram

M LMXVRL WROC LRX GMTO XR JO DSKOE VL RSWOS XR JO XRKQG. ---NSMLPEVL WOEMLR SRRCOTOEX

Today’s CG is courtesy of the Arkansas Gazette.

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.

15 minutes. I stumbled around with the two and three letter words until I took a good look at the author. Then I realized who it was, and the rest opened up from there.

If nothing else, it does get ones attention....

I still ‘shudder’ at the American Sailors being taught to button their collars and cuffs and turn your back to the blast.

I went USN boot in 1957 and after having went through the CD ‘air raid drills’, hide under the desk etc, I attended an ‘ABC’ class in boot and have NEVER trusted anything the government or ‘adult’ said after that class and what we had been told....
