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.
Key, for the lazy:

Truly not awake yet, took me three minutes because I was trying to fit “lather rinse repeat” as the author... Then I realized it was Monday.
Good morning everyone!
I got the first in about a minute, the second in about two. Loved having the bonus puzzle to work on!
