Today's Cryptogram is NOT from the from 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.
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.
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.
Solution to our last puzzle:
If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything. ― Mark Twain
First three words....
Yes. 1 minute, other than first letter of last name.
Strange.....
Didn’t recognize the last name so ‘looked’ him up...
Like the lady says...
“You got some strange demons running around in your head’
Guy is a ‘master’ of double speak...must be a lawyer or a Pol....<: <: <:
Sample....Believe those who are seeking the truth, doubt those that find it......
Ditto.
My exact situation. Had to look it up.
Wednesday already? I thought it was Monday...
That was a quick one (and is obviously our President’s motto!) LOL!

Under 30 seconds. Once I got the 3rd word I had it.
That was difficult, that letter.
It’s like when you say:”Don’t take this in the wrong way but......”
I was stumped with the first word because there were only two choices as to what it could be. Both wouldn’t work with the third word due to the double letter. Spelling is important ya know!
Read the comments and was jealous that some solved it in a minute. Such smart people!
Then it hit me. I didn’t copy the first letter of the CG!
Solved it in a minute!
yay!
That was an easy one. Took as long as it took to write the letters. Except last name first letter. Had to look up.
For me, it was words 1, 2 and 4.
Only so many possibilities, given the double letter in word 3!
