What bees the problem?

While washing the C6 today I had a bumble bee keep buzzing me an the car. Luckily I had my trusty leaf blower, for the drying process, handy. The bee kept comeing, and I kept blowing him away. He must have made a dozen passes at my MY Vette. I finally gave up and put the car in the garage to finish the clean up. I think he was trying to polinate my C6......

It sounds like a joke but it is true! I was at a Pontiac - GMC car display with 6 cars/trucks of different colors. The 2006 GTO was bright yellow and a was the only vehicle with bugs all over it. The other colors were bug free.
