UNSCRAMBLE THAT WORD!
- Thread starter Nymtoc

I'm starting to get worried. Albedo is showing signs of...well...I don't want to be responsible for something catastrophic, so I'll expand on the last clue:
(Has been known to drive people bugs, especially in the Land Down Under.)

I give up. (You have no idea how close you are to having to sit in the time-out chair.)
Ok, let me get this straight. These letters, EATLINAVA SIDMN, unscrambled, chews and drives you bugs down under? This is too many letters for crabs.
I swear Nymtoc, if this is some obscure latin phrase or..or..some supermental comic from an Australian fanzine, YOU WILL BE VISITING REVISIONIST'S
TIME OUT CHAIR!!!
Now, if you would kindly give us all a GOOD clue, it would be dearly appreciated.

Alas! It is as I feared. The scramble and the clues have resulted in something approaching a nervous breakdown. 
I must remedy the situation before something worse occurs. So here's another hint. You've GOT to get it now!
(Hint: There is nothing like a Toon, especially one from Down Under that chews until he devours everything in sight, including--if he's not careful--our old pal Bugs.)
(Bonus hint--no extra charge. When Albedo came up with "mania" about 10 posts back, she was getting part of it.)

You're a mean one, Mr Grin... erm... Nymtoc
And honest Albedo and Revisionist... I didn't just hold off until you guys signed off... I came back from watching a movie and saw the carnage and then Nymtoc's cave in hint...

LOL Drice, that is exactly what flew through my mind. All this time, you sat there and watched us suffer....I'm crying.
Nymtoc....touche, well done, break a leg, lose some ink, and all that. You may just be the champion. (but we'll take a vote first)
Here's a scramble internationally known, when unscrambled...

SALVADOR DALI is not among my favorite painters, but he did have an amazing stache.

WHAAAATTT?????
1. I thought Tasmania was in Romania.
2. How could lovable Mr. Disney allow a creature like Taz in his cartoons?
3. Drice, you were watching a movie? Relaxing? Probably enjoying adult beverages, and then you log on and go, "Oh, easy, tasmanian devil?"
4. Grrrrr....
But I will not be a poor sport. Nymtoc, you are the man.
(But watch it now, buddy. All bets are off...)

Oh yeah, she's back! Even when her computer would not let her log on to AW for 40 minutes, she kept trying because by George, I think she has it:
THE CANTERBURY TALES
Whoop, whoop!
High five!
New word: DAMNDORAGE
(Highfalutin way to describe the challenge)
(I'm still not over it. Sigh.)

Second clue (and possibly last of the night because I have a massive pile of work to finish): It's a current bestseller.
Now behave while I am offline, my little ones.
