Today’s Cryptogram

Posted on 01/25/2020 6:14:08 AM PST by nikos1121

Today’s CG was chosen by me.

ZLJ MSRONJ QGSRBQFI RJPJQ UJJNM QJMIFRMSCNJ UFQ ZLJ UNFFB. ---BFYONGM GBGDM

You can find this little fun word game, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications.

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.

PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and any tips you might give the group on how you solve these puzzles as puzzle solvers love to hear how you made out.

You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram.

If you're just starting out on these, be patient, as you'll be proficient in no time.

If you need a little help you can copy the cryptogram and paste it to Hal’s Helper below:

You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper.

2019 Cryptogram Solvers Hall of Fame

Well, we’re winding down selection to our 2019 HALL OF FAME

So, as we close I’m asking for nominees of those whom I may have missed. (I know I’ve missed people who play now and then.)

Simply send a name to my private replay.

The selection is based on many things but mostly enthusiasm and support for this forum.

In addition their choice reflects their skill and temerity of purpose in the solving of these daily CGs..

On February 26th, (The first day of Lent), I will name three Hall of Famers, and give a $25 donation to Free Republic in their behalf.

Congratulations to Today's Cryptogram Hall of Famers:

Solution to our last puzzle:

HAPPINESS IS A BUTTERFLY, WHICH WHEN PURSUED, IS ALWAYS JUST BEYOND YOUR GRASP, BUT WHICH, IF YOU WILL SIT DOWN QUIETLY, MAY ALIGHT UPON YOU. —NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE

I was looking for the H of F names in bold. There were none. Then, in keeping with FR tradition, I read your entire post after I posted.
