You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications. I challenge us with the best ones out there.

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, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.

PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.

You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!

I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.

You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

HAL'S CRYPTOGRAM HELPER

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.

No, gitmo…… I have not tried it, but I understand a little catsup helps. LOL

Some people attribute this quote to Mark Twain, but general consensus is that he didn’t write it.

Computer guy,
So, you have tried it with the little green ones? How did it work out for you?

Gunner, I had cooked frog legs once (on a dare). They tasted like chicken.

But that didn’t count. It has to taste really horrible to be able to have nothing worse than that to happen later in the day.

They’re best roasted until crunchy. If I have a cold beverage, I’ll dip them in Sriracha. Yum.
