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.

I think this quote goes out to those who don’t post their times.

Haha, from one who doesn’t. Ok 2 min, after I noticed letter frequency was a rabbit hole. BTW, did the quotefall guy stop posting?

Thanks for another great cryptogram nikos1121. I have been starting my day with these for many months - I really look forward to them and a cup of coffee.

I don’t always leave a comment - and I’m probably not alone in that... so perhaps there is a lot more participation than you think.

But I’m guessing you don’t need me to tell you how appreciated your contribution is.

“I never get tired reading the compliments and learning how the Today’s Cryptogram starts the day for everyone.“

I’m the same way - I just thought I’d try to work the theme of today’s cryptogram into my comment by suggesting you didn’t need to hear it.

:-)

I assume this means you don’t want to be on the Ping List?
