Bluetooth is named after the Viking warrior king Harald Bluetooth. King Harald Blåtand's name when translated in english stands for Harald 'Bluetooth'. The bluetooth technology was named in honor of this King of the Danes. Now if you observe the runic letters more closely as shown in the figure, and take the 'H' and 'B' letter symbols and fuse them, it gives us the Bluetooth Symbol.

Listen to poem:
All my home remotes died today in Spring. Dumbstruck by 'GreyTooth' the Pirate King. Who like Harald 'Bluetooth', the Danish Monarch had a dead blue-grey tooth in his head, a hallmark of how smart a pirate he was to stage a scam demand that I pay a ransom to release my remotes from remand. So what do I do as nothing works without a remote? I feel like a wader poking fingers down hole's throat, hoping to get a reaction from my TV, Stereo and other devices, that only work to the sounds of remote signal advice's, made by Bluetooth in responses to keystrokes. This reliance on remote devices really sucks, folks.
