Trivia for today...

Look at the words "Sweden" & "Denmark".

We're you aware that if you take the first 3 letters of each word and put them together, it spells "Sweden".

When you take the remaining letters of each word and put them together, it spells "Denmark".

Cool, huh?

They actually share a common Supreme Court. The 3 with Royalty are in some way integrated. Here in NYC they share a cultural mission, Scandinavia House, on Park Avenue in Murry Hill.
