Brian and Amy, I cannot believe I must tell you this, but once again, good work!

The cipher was easier today. Thanks for that. They are quick!

Brian and Amy said...

Thanks Nate! This was the most challenging PoM puzzle so far for us.

We almost submitted Mordechai Rumkowski as the PoM, but decided not to at the last minute because the clue didn't quite match. We ended up researching close to a dozen other possibilities before deciding on Max Factor.

So what did the cipher stand for? It wasn't that easy for me...

Rob - Using the substitution a=z, b=y, c=x, etc., the cipher becomes:

"A Polish Jew I was destined to be, famous by name across the sea. Even today I'm a star of great fame. My grandson however was dogged by his shame."

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought you have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
