Here is the message, with the hidden message inside.

Bleah taskmaster. Go away blue elephant, I hate our really yellow bite. Fat old people should not wear red speedos. Roar! Said the big ink pot. In your brain ink almost grays overnight sometimes. Boo! Said the sasquatch. Hey, are you staring at me? Oops, Overton just bravoed the phantom’s lethal crime cravat. What a weird old fin, huh? In heaven twinkies are.

Can you find the message?

Is this Steganography, or Cryptography?

It's something to do with all of the capital letters if I'm right.

Please stop acting like a Mod DBM, since it was only a couple of weeks ago that you were posting crap (not implying that this thread is crap though )

Off by loads. However, now that there has been some real speculation, here is the decodeing method: Take the first letter, "b" and go 2 characters to the right, and take the letter to the right of the cursor, "e" and add that to the message. Then, go 6 (because e is letter number 5, and you need to get to the right of it) characters to the right, and take that letter, "s" and go 20 characters to the right, for the more or less same reasons as before.) I'm sure you get it by now. There is no spacing in the secret message: so once you get all of the letters, try and find words in the jumble.

Well, I got this far -- Not sure if it's right though


But getting some words out of that is what's confusing me now.

I got a little closer, but near the end, it doesn't work out for me.

And then it doesn't work out. What are you supposed to do when you end up on a space or a punctuation mark?
