My favorite was from a father who had bought his son a hamster as a birthday present. They noticed that the hamster spent many hours each night running on its wheel and wondered how far it ran each night. Not content to leave the question hanging, they actually rigged up a bicycle odometer to the hamster wheel, and after a few nights were able to determine that it ran between two and three miles each night.
