Today’s Cryptogram
C IVCZNZX FSCF AVEFE NY SHE RVCFSVAE HE BTEF CYNFSVA FTAXVJ. —LNWWJ ICAFNY
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:
NOTHING CAN STOP THE MAN WITH THE RIGHT MENTAL ATTITUDE FROM ACHIEVING HIS GOAL, AND NOTHING ON EARTH CAN HELP THE MAN WITH THE WRONG MENTAL ATTITUDE. —-THOMAS JEFFERSON
2 min. 3rd word then 6th word.
Far too simple today.
First word and its Katy bar the door, run into the roundhouse Nelly, they can’t corner you there. <: <: <:
My first guess for the author was Harry Truman!
Got it. A dear friend of mine once drew her blood. She commented that she has teeny-tiny feet.
I’m guessing that was due to lack of sunlight...
Well, you were close. People get those two mixed up all the time. =)
I would think you’re right. I also heard that her husband is a very insecure fellow. Rumor has it, that it’s because his mouth is not big enough.
Danny Thomas works, as well.
The man from Wedt Plains....
West.. Covfefe hasn’t yet taken effect.
Barry Newman, for all of you “Vanishing Point” fans.
It’s not clicking for me today.
Difficult. I needed several restarts. Then I guessed just one letter of the name, and finally got going.
I took another stab at it today and got it in about 3 minutes.
