Cryptoquote Solved – 05/05/22 Cinco de Mayo!

“If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.”   —   Tallulah Bankhead

(She could be a wild one!  I would like to have been at some of those parties with her.  In this photo I can see a little Jodie Foster in her.  Maybe Jodie could star in the Tallulah Bankhead Story!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(Hey, hipsters!  You couldn’t come up with a cooler name for your baby girl than Tallulah.  It beats the hell out of all these androgynous names, and naming your kids after fruit and such.  Just sayin’.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  What a difference a week makes.  Last Sunday’s quote was nearly undecipherable . . . for me.  But today?  I had the first five words before I ever put pen to paper.  Again, many thanks to Bet for the clues!  I had just put it up on Word, and was going to put it out there for people like Art, and was going to give it a new try myself, now that I had a clean copy, but Bet’s clues saved me some of the trouble.   —   YUR

“If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.”   —   Tallulah Bankhead

(If I hadn’t made probably the biggest mistake of my life I wouldn’t be married to the woman who I’m married to, so I wouldn’t have the children that I have, and so on and so on.  There is such a ripple effect in everything we do, no matter good or bad, that changing one thing would completely alter the course of your life.  For a few that might be desirous, but I think most of us have things about our current life, that we like/love enough, that we wouldn’t want to jeopardize them by changing something in the past.  Be well, do good . . . and be happy where you are.)   —   YUR
