In honor of Snoopy

This post exists for the reasons stated above.  It is in honor of the classic cartoon put up yesterday and some interesting news inspired by it.  If folks were unaware of this there is the western Winnie the Pooh that we all know and love from the U.K. and there is his Russian doppleganger.  There is Winnie the Pooh, AND Vinni Puh...  Seriously... This is crazy but true.  Check out a clip of him below.  Which one do you prefer?  If you already knew this then aren't you special, but I just discovered it recently.



I think they are both cool, but I prefer the one that I grew up with.  Still the animation in the Russian version is well done and during the cold war at least both sides had Winnie, or Vinni.
