Wow! Way to go Joe! Great contest Moe!

I went by Morse code on at least 4 different websites and said to myself, "ain't no way it's Morse code!" Boy was I ever wrong.

Fun, brain fryer Moe. I'd do these without a prize.

No
I will never understand how to decode words. Did you take classes for that?

Nope, I am only in the tenth grade and my high school does not offer that as a course (I am not sure if any high school would). If it was a class I would definitely take it; I love decoding!

I think it was very clever that the OP made the letter frequencies in the code very close to those in English. That definitely threw me off into thinking that the code is plaintext.
