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.
Today’s may be challenging, as we get ready for summer.
If you need a clue ask the group to send you a letter to your private reply.

“K FAV’FF”
Seriously?
It’s a true quote...nothing then bam!
Hahaha.
A pretty obtuse clue!!!
LOL …… we used to say this when we were kids. Growing up in a middle class family, our family and another family went out to eat every Sunday after Church. We always went to the neighborhood drug store soda shop where we kids would always order burgers and you know what we needed to put on the burgers.
Midwestern alternate spelling
Odd one. Got it easily though starting with the 3-letter word after the comma and the single-letter word.
It’s spelled with a K!
