You pet bees when they're pollenating a plant since they're too focused on collecting the pollen to care about you touching them. I can proudly exclaim that I have touched many bees, I enjoyed it very much each time.
I must apologize for accusing you of blowing up those pagers, stabbing kids in Lisbon, "milking" a horse and setting fire to a San Diego kindergarten. It was a lapse in my judgement.
