One of the longest running gag sites on the Web is the Britney Spears Primer on Semiconductor Laser Physics Website.
http://britneyspears.ac/ Yes a little known fact: Britney Spears is a particle physicist. That Website has photos of Spears, with the various maths functions of semiconductor physics drawn and equations labelled on the curves of her body, posing before particle accelerators, posing with famous physicists, computer wallpapers of those photos and maths charts on her body, lyrics sheets, Britney bling shop, and a special blog that Ms Spears updates herself. Really.
She and the Website owner were even interviewed for the tongue-in-cheek Website in Scientific American and the BBC. Who says science education can't be sexy? Just needs a little imagination, and Britney Spears has long lent her name and photos to this Website on Ascension Island (a very lonely place with nothing to do obviously).
I always get a kick out of this site when I need a quick jolt of humour. (OK so I am easily amused.)
