Im bored... so, I start another game in brain teasers

This is a very simple game. I give you the letters in a phrase, and either the number of words, or the spaces for each word, and you try and put the letters back in their place. Simple, eh... well, here are the rules.

1: One puzzle will be out at a time.
2: Every letter will be lined up... in alphabetical order.
3: Depending on the difficulty of the puzzle, the point value will vary.
4: In order for your guess to count, put it in quotes " ". No quotes, no points, even if it is right.
5: Spelling counts... use it.
6: I will either give you a word count (IE: 5 words) Or a space count. (IE: ----- -- ---- -- -----). This is your preliminary guide to the puzzle. USE IT
7: Hints are available if need be, but the point value will decrease by one fore each hint given. If you think you need a hint, ASK!
8: There may be chances for bonus points... Keep a look out for them.
9: Score will be tallied after each puzzle. First person to 100 points will be crowned Master Word Bender (Or something like that)
10: Have fun... its only a game

So... Lets get started, eh?

Scramble 1(2 Points)

Begin!

I like the idea

None yet. I'm not all that hot on non-structured wordplay. (That is to say, wordplay that isn't a crossword. )


Wait a minute, I stand corrected.
