One new one hittin' area theaters this weekend...

Big Miracle

U.S. workers waste on average more than two hours a day, or $759 billion in annual paid salary, according to a recent survey from AOL and Salary.com. What are we doing when we're squandering the boss's time and money?

• Surfing the Internet for personal use: 44.7% (kinda like what you're doin' now??)
• Socializing with co-workers: 23.4%
• Conducting personal business: 6.8%
• Spacing out: 3.9%
• Running errands off premises: 3.1%

"Wow, I can't believe we get paid for this!!??"

Here are seven of the world's more exotic delicacies, what they actually taste like – and where you can try, or avoid, them.

• Tarantula, Cambodia - Tastes like: scrawny chicken wings coated in especially sweet plum sauce. With hairs on.
• Puffer Fish, Japan - Tastes like: fish, and not very tasty fish at that. Gourmets claim its subtle flavour and fine texture is second to none.
• Ortolan, France - An Ortolan is a songbird, that people eat bones, beak and all. Tastes like: crunchy hazelnuts with a brandy aftertaste – not surprising, as the unfortunate birds meet their death in a glass of congnac.
• Puffin, Iceland - A seabird that some say tastes delicious! Tastes like: a fishier, gamier version of chicken.
• Crocodile, Australia - Tastes like: gristly chicken. I'd stick with chicken ... or Australia's other, bouncier inhabitant, the kangaroo, which tastes like the world's best steak.
• Mature Eggs, Cambodia - Eggs are cooked shortly before they're due to hatch. You stick your spoon in and the yolk oozes out, closely followed by a chicken fetus. Tastes like: Chicken and egg.
• Snake, China - Tastes like: chicken, but with a beefy texture.
