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!

Did anybody see the MOON overnight? It was a huge, bright supermoon.

WOW.

This has nothing to do with today’s Cryptogram.
