KEYWORDS: todayscryptogram
You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications. I challenge us with the best ones out there.

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, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.

PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.

You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!

I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.

You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.

Solution to our last puzzle. Simply scroll your cursor over the text while left clicking your mouse, and the words should appear.

IT IS NOT OUR DIFFERENCES THAT DIVIDE US, IT IS OUR INABILITY TO RECOGNIZE. ACCEPT AND CELEBRATE THOSE DIFFERENCES. ANDRE LORDE

Sorry, Folks, I’m having a little trouble getting started.

Wrote this to get it off my chest.

Democrats are stupid, and they think we’re stupid.

They are so blatantly obvious in their deception, that it will be easy to prove their criminality.

The quote is an exaggeration, however the subject does have its good points.

That depends completely on whether the DOJ decides to get off their duffs and do the investigating ...

= = = = = = = = = = = =

I started getting serious ‘doubts’ when people started wearing the masks with the answer being ‘better to go along and get along’, and that sentiment grew.

When the D candidate for Senate in VA (Warner) used a statement by his R opponent that said “the mask is a sign of tyranny” I figured the D was being very ‘gutty’ using that but I guess the ‘chicken littles’ won out in the long run.

We all (basically) put no faith in the polls but the size of the crowds for each Prez ‘gathering’ seemed to be a big plus on OUR side as we could see that so it does make one believe WTF was going on in the election vote counting.

Of course they have already tagged ‘us’ with being poor losers and conspiracy theorists because we dare question the count......
