Today’s Cryptogram

KUD FMIK GFSMNKEQK KUGQC GQ BGXD GI KM BDENQ UMJ KM CGLD MAK BMLD. EQP KM BDK GK YMFD GQ. —FMNNGD IYUJENKW

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.


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.

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

6 min, distracted by having to get lunch.

Should’ve gone with my instincts on the first word.

I thought it was more or less just typing. First word, then just follow your eyes.

Probably a minute today.

Although it was late and I was thinking too well, I couldn’t solve the one from yesterday.
