cryptograms

[ι т є я]

I just got a book of cryptograms from my friend for Christmas and I thought I'd spread the fun.

For those of you that have never done cryptograms, it's actually a really simple game. Each letter of the message corresponds to a different letter of the alphabet. The coded letter will correspond to the actual letters throughout the entire cryptogram. Once all the letters are replaced with their actual letter, the random jumble should form a readable sentence or phrase.

For example: SGQL QL BR KABHXEK, forms the message: THIS IS AN EXAMPLE.

If no one can guess the cryptogram, the book has hints to help out. Just post and ask for one if you're stuck. You can also post puzzles of your own if you feel like it! Now to the game, I'll start off with the first one in the book:

Answer! (highlight to view c:)
it is unwise to complain loudly about how the ball bounces, especially if you are the one who dropped it.

I didn't want to post it in easily readable text because I know I would have hated having the answer staring me in the face if I still wanted to solve it ^^;

I so don't understand this game Dx lol

It's a bit difficult to explain, through the internet. Check out this site and see if that clears it up at all.

I'm not as much of a failure as I thought I was xD
Answer: the wise fellow could find great consolation in nearly anything; smaller salary means smaller taxes.
