I don't know if any of you listened to the interview with Gro Amdam, but
this cracked me up:

     Dr. Biology: That's very good. The other question I had, and it's more
particular to you, of course. Have you ever been stung by a bee? Or maybe I
should ask, how many times have you been stung by a bee? 

    Gro: I can't give you any specific numbers. But I can guarantee you that
after a couple of stings, you get really, really good at wearing protective
gear. And duct tape your suit closed, so no bees can ever come in.

Or, you get used to it ...
