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!
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. ☕
Please follow these guidelines for the best experience for everyone:
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! 🍀

| Lonesome, if you've ever heard the term "Occasional Cortex", that's a label I conceived thanks to a meme posted on Free Republic back in a day. It was a meme that should have died after a few laughs in a couple weeks. But fortunately, the great Michael Savage picked up the term and started using it regularly on this radio program. And only then was my flash-in-the-pan nickname raised to high level name recognition in America. So FR can take your ideas places... |
I don’t know, I believe the epithet had occurred to me independently, and I may even have used it here. It just suits her.
Low hanging fruit.
In her case, “Everyone is equal, it’s just that some are more equal than others”....
Thanks.
But what if you work 5 days a week, 9-5? Does that matter?
