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.

Thank you. I got this new Apple laptop and for some reason when I copy and paste Hells helper it doesn’t post the link. So I have to go back and re-copy and paste it using my iPad. What’s going on here?

Easy peesy today from The Arkansas Gazette

Maybe 90 sec.
1st two words by letter patterns & grammar (the same common letter starts both short words), next-to-last word in the sentence, off to the races.

Try:

< a href = “https://www.hjkeen.net/htoys/cryptogm.htm” target=”_blank” >HAL’S CRYPTOGRAM HELPER</a>

without the space between the “<” and the “a”?

I’m on a PC.

Thank you. That is definitely different than what I was using on my iPad. We’ll see if it works. Why would it be different?

Best to start with the long word…

[Stars&StripesNE]

A breeze today. Fell into place immediately.

Took me a bit. I finally used the common ending for a lot of words and then things fell into place.
