OK, I hate to pick, but ALL real components have Resistance, Capacitance 
and Inductance.  So a metal film resistor with a spiral for the film will 
have inductance, plus there will capacitance between turns of the film.  
All necessary components for self resonance are there.  Only an ideal 
resistor would be "purely" resistive.

So, an real world resistor will have a self resonant frequency.  My 
statement is still valid.
