__ 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. _

The author of the quote needs to look in the mirror. This country is not as he titles it.

[poconopundit]

It all started with the guy who owned this opulent swimming pool.  Hint: not located in Greece, but in the State where it takes a couple weeks for mail-in ballots to come in.

Well, the date of publication for his book is 1996. Much has changed since 1996.
