I just learned recently on the news that the Bear who inspired "Winnie The Poo" is dead.

Cause of Death: Too Many Sweets. His very sweet tooth revealed telling information about all his teeth having fallen out from years of being fed sweets by hundreds of children wishing to pay homage. End result is severe gum disease. Sheesh.

I can't help but feel it's astonishingly appropriate since the Bear was Canadian in origin. Why? Your guess is mine, but he's Canadian! CANADA HAD something that people could talk about other than that Boy Lesbian, Justin Beiber!
