Being clever is good, not too clever!
the story goes:
there was a brilliant man by the name of _______. he was highly praised by everyone in the academic world for his insightful contributions and many research breakthroughs. he was also a very kind hearted man who loved animals a lot.
back at home, he kept two cats, timmy the smaller one, and tammy who is double the size of timmy. they were livinvg happily together until the cats' scratching habit on the walls made him very frustrated, so he went off to investigate.
he realised that the cats wanted to go out and play but he had no trapdoor for the cats to leave and enter the house freely and so, after some serious considerations, he decided to drill two holes on the wall for the cats, a bigger one for tammy and a smaller one for timmy.
the cats' scratching stopped soon after. isn't he the most brilliant man?

HAhahaa while I apprecaite your wit and sarcasm at the end, I disagree with your topic. It's not about being too clever. It's just that he's just too keen on finding the solution (what with his love for animals) while being distracted by his other interests.
I heard of this story many times when I was a kid, and after I read this entry I went to tell some of my friends about it (without revealing the man) and to my surprise they have never heard of this story before!! So THanks lemonz for sharing this wonderful bit.
never heard of timmy tammy though =D
Jiayou ba! I'll leave you with a very interesting palidrome I came across:
Do geese see God?
