TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS:
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.

HAL'S CRYPTOGRAM HELPER

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.

You should be able to solve this “baby” word for word or at least line by line.

Overall, under two minutes is good, under 90 seconds excellent.

1 minute Master Class

Can someone please post the solution to yesterday’s CG?

1:47.72, much of that tripping over Hal. I was slowed up because I didn’t realize that there were two sentences, so it not initially flow for me. But, yeah, 90 seconds should be pretty easy.

CHeck your private reply.

I’m feeling better about things, but not unrealistic. This is an up hill climb from here out.

I’m curious as to why people like Karl Rove aren’t questioning things. Trump won the key counties in the swing states, yet he loses? Has this ever happened?

Biden has no coat tails, but Trump does?

Tens of thousands of votes in MI, Mail ins where only Biden listed, no other candidates voted for?

Trump is on a strong pace to win all Battle Ground states, ALL, then the vote counting is stopped?

Lastly, don’t they keep these ballots? I’m hearing they’ve been destroyed?

I wish there was one site that would look at everything and declare what fact and what is fiction.
