Today's Cryptogram

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.

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.

Perfect choice for today’s CG.

Speaking of “choice” ……….. choice is only good for those who won’t be harmed by that choice.

Give them credit for ripping the band-aid off.

From Steven Wright, comic.

I had a dream that all the babies prevented by the pill showed up. They were mad

He had the unique gift of speaking with warmth and humor, but still getting directly to the point.

Made him a formidable opponent to the left.

I’ve been unable to post the Daily CG or to respond to anyone privately or otherwise. It appears that my account has been blocked or canceled, for unknown reasons.
