Hello,

Ready for a mental workout? A Cryptogram is a classic quotation puzzle frequently featured in daily publications. I source the best and most challenging ones to help keep our minds sharp and boost cognitive health!

How the Cryptogram Works

In a Cryptogram, a single letter always stands for another letter.

(Example: AXYDLBAAXR might translate to LONGFELLOW. This is just an example and does not apply to today’s puzzle.)

If this is your first time, don’t be intimidated—the game is very addictive, and you will quickly master the technique! If you find yourself stumped, simply take a break and return to it later.

Instructions & Community Etiquette

Please follow these guidelines for the best experience for everyone:

HAL’S CRYPTOGRAM HELPER

Post a Clever Clue

Feel free to post a fun or clever clue—the more tangential to the quotation the better! Just remember that your clue **must not contain the actual words** of the solved quote.

Good luck, and enjoy the challenge!

A little late today. I had a cybercastrophe, but seem to have mostly recovered. If you were not pinged and expected to be, freepmail me. If you were pinged and ask not to be, likewise.

Thanks for you patience.

I solved the Cryptogram but have no idea what the author is talking about.

Is it the viewer’s EZBR QBR DOQVQDPFV or the EZBR QBR DOQVQDPFV of the person viewed?
