Today’s Cryptogram

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.
About 3 min. Everything moved pretty smoothly until 6th and 11th words. They were speed bumps for me. In the end, everybody got a car.
Solution to our last puzzle:
SINGING IS A WAY OF ESCAPING. IT’S ANOTHER WORLD. I’M NO LONGER ON EARTH. —EDITH PIAF
2 min, only one missed letter, as fast as I could click.
I did it without a net.
All I got was BEES!!!!
That went pretty quick. There were a few words in there I kind of know on sight now.
1:40.I’m on fire.
Leave Adam Schitt and PeachMent OUT of the Cryptogram threads, please!! :-D
I don’t know how long but I’m definitely getting better.
You’re becoming a pro
A play on...
You will NEVER fail if you NEVER try anything!
