Mener du sjokkerende?

What Bergen Place needs is a Bergen flag like this one http://www.flickr.com/photos/eckligt/119973174/...

The other Scandinavian flags can hang somewhere else.

I have a Swedish flag, and a Swedish windsock…but they are smaller than the other flag sup there, or I'd offer.

Sure! And while we're at it, let's take down all the signs in Asian lettering in the International District! Not everyone who lives there is Asian.

Touche! Just goes to show you how desperate some people are for a Swedish Flag. Actually, I bought quite a few Norwegian and Swedish flags in there…I was sad to see it go.

I sincerely dount that it was stolen by any naughty Norski's at the Sons of Norway, though.

It is covering the ceiling or wall of a ballard teenager with oblivious parents.

If only there was a place where one could get a Swedish flag, perhaps a retail establishment of some kind, maybe even one on Market Street…oh, yeah…right.

Maybe someone is borrowing it for the weekend to bring to Houston to support the Sounders in the 2nd leg of the West Conference Semifinals? (Swedish Midfielder Freddie Ljungberg is on the team) :)

The word on the street is that a Norwegian and a Dane conspired to make it disappear while trying to put the blame on the Fremont Troll.

It matters not. Since the Oresund link was completed 9 years ago, all of Scandinavia is Danish once again.
