The key to this puzzle is A=N.
Have fun!
Will it spoil anything if we solve the cryptogram before we finish the book?
ReplyDeleteNope
ReplyDeleteNot at all.
ReplyDeleteI don't have the book with me but I am pretty sure the exclamatory second sentence should read:
ReplyDelete"N tubfg fuVc!"
I'm almost 100% sure that is the case. I will check when I am home at lunch.
Yep. I was right.
ReplyDeleteAlso. The very next sentence has an error as well. Should be "Jvgu vgf tEvaavat..."
ReplyDeleteAnd another in the same sentence. "synccVat". In glen's defense I have his book!
ReplyDeleteThere are actually 10 more errors as well and a few missed commas. Jesus glen, I'm dissappointed.
ReplyDeleteoff with his head
ReplyDeleteBURN him! or at least see if he weighs as much as a duck.
ReplyDeleteCan I borrow someone's copy? The local stores and library are out of it and I don't know if I have time to order it and read it before the meeting. Pretty Please??? :)
ReplyDeleteYou're a mooch. Oh, wait, I'm borrowing Glen's copy as I had the same problem. Glen, can she borrow your book?
ReplyDeleteYeah, can I? Can I? Oh, and by the way- I was just kidding about that whole "burn him!" thing. ha ha. Just a joke. Those were crazy times and I think we can all agree that no one knew what they were saying...it just got a little out of hand...you know how it is...the heat of the moment...someone gets set on fire...no hard feelings right? .....
ReplyDeleteI have no excuse; at lease I will claim none.
ReplyDeleteI should be done with my copy by this weekend if Glenmike's copy is unavailable.

ReplyDeleteWeird. They just got a copy in at B&N today, so I'm going to go pick it up today. Thanks for the offer though!
ReplyDeletehmmmm. I think it's about time for me to start reading this here book. See ya all saturday.
