Improbable Research

I saw the link to the institute of improbable research today when looking at Nu.
This institute recently opened a new European research bureau in Rotterdam in the Natural History Museum Rotterdam.

Their goal is " to make people laugh, then make them think. We also hope to spur people's curiosity about science, and to raise the question: How do you decide what's important and what's not, and what's real and what's not -- in science and everywhere else? "

Great site with all kind of research topics you think, euhm yes, and later you really start thinking, there is something interesting about it. Just like their idea about using dogs internal clock for medicating people, see here.
