Scrambled words puzzle game

If permitted by moderators, if there's interest in it, and if it isn't too easy, how about a game based on one in many daily newspapers, scrambled letters that when sorted out make real words?
Suggested rules, subject to any practicable changes) could be:
1) Puzzle should generally be of one sentence (some flexibility may be needed to make coherent and/or interesting excerpts).
2) Punctuation should be kept as is in solved puzzle, example:
nimn," dsia ouy bBoil. "veerN
is solved as
"Never you mind," said Bilbo.
"Never you mind," said Bilbo.
3) Capital letters are kept as in solved puzzle.
4) Confirmed solver posts new puzzle.

To begin, how about this:
