Annals of Improbable Research:
Reviews and awards for research that cannot or should not be
reproduced. About a third is genuine research, about a third is
concocted, and for about a third of the material most readers cannot
tell the difference. Example "Are there black holes in your head?
There may be tiny, tiny black holes so small that they gather
electrons and then act much like normal atoms. If such itsy-bitsy
black holes exist, they could be virtually anywhere, even in your
head. If you have a black hole in your head, we would be interested
in hearing from you."
