Pound Wise and Penny Foolish  (源自：英语在线)
    Albert Einstein was a genius in science, but he did not care about everyday things. For instance, he often wore a suit without a tie, and he even went to class in slippers. So there are a lot of anecdotes about him. The following story is one of them.
One day, Einstein went to the kitchen to help his wife with cooking. He was irritated to tear when peeling onions. His wife told him that it would be far more comfortable to peel onions in water.
A moment later, his wife noticed that Einstein had disappeared. After failing to find him in sitting room, study and bedroom, she was so anxious that she rushed out to the yard and shouted, “Albert, Albert!”
Just then, Einstein emerged from the swimming pool and said, “You told me, it's more comfortable to peel onions in water, I carried out the experiment, only to find I couldn't even open my eyes, or even breathe. You fooled me …”
      大事聪明 小事糊涂   （译文：牛筋）
阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦在学术上是天才，但小事上却不注意。例如他穿西服常常忘了系领带，甚至穿着拖鞋去讲课。因此有许多关于他的趣闻。下面就是其中之一。
一天，爱因斯坦去厨房帮妻子做饭。他剥洋葱的时候，被刺激得直流泪。妻子告诉他，剥洋葱要在水里剥才不会刺激到眼睛。
    过了一会儿，妻子突然发现爱因斯坦不见了。她在客厅、书房、卧室都没找到他，就急得跑到院子里大叫：“阿尔伯特！阿尔伯特！”
   这时，爱因斯坦从游泳池里冒出来，嚷道：“你还说在水里剥洋葱会好些，
我去做实验，被搞得眼睛睁不开，气也喘不了。你骗我……”
