Interesting (?) Fact of the Day

This morning when I was reading Arte & Marte, the biannual magazine published by the Swedish House of Nobility*, something caught my eye on the Family News pages (you know, those pages listing marriages, birth, deaths, etc.). It read:

Gyllenhaal, Maggie Ruth, *1977, actress, and John Peter Sarsgaard, *1971, actor, married 2 May 2009

I didn't know that the Gyllenhaals were members of the Swedish nobility, let alone any nobility?!! Guess you learn something new every day! Even if it's värdelöst vetande (worthless knowledge), as we say in Sweden :)

* One member of this household happens to be a member of this house as well, and it's not me...
