Real Molecules with Silly Names:  -  this one includes Chime images of the molecules in question, HOWEVER I would not make this available to students ESPECIALLY at the high school level but be selective of those compounds you  wish to share as some names, photos and associations are inappropriate for children.  http://www.bris.ac.uk/Depts/Chemistry/MOTM/silly/sillymols.htm

Molecules with Silly or Unusual Names  (same site...new URL)  same disclaimer above.

Musical Chemistry -  this one has both a British and Organic chem bent, but the songs are  funny.  (Sing it with me - EDTA!!) Bio teachers will probably like "Form a Phosphate-Ester Link (to Carbon Three)" sung to the tune of "Tie a Yellow Ribbon."  Hilarious and scientifically accurate to boot.

The Annals of Improbable Research - most people probably already know about this one.  Newly added are the 2002 IgNobel prize winners.
