    Scientists scouring the fields of Folsom, California found a new kind of black tarantula which they have named after Johnny Cash, the American music legend. The eightlegged creature named Aphonopelma johnnycashi is all black, the way Cash often dressed when he strummed his guitar and sang songs like 'The Man in Black' and 'Folsom Prison Blues'.


    Chris Hamilton, lead author of the study identified the tarantula as one of 14 new spider species discovered in the southwestern United States. Researchers at Auburn University and Millsaps College, during a decade-long hunt, collected nearly 3,000 specimens in multiple states. They found that the Johnny Cash spider was widespread, but had long been considered as another species named A iodius.


    "It's quite similar looking," said Hamilton. "When we started collecting lots of specimens and looking closely at their morphology, DNA, and ecological variables, we saw that these were unique and warranted being separated as a separate species."

    Love is a burnin' thing
    And it makes a fiery ring
    Bound by wild desire
    I fell into a ring of fire
    I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    The taste of love is sweet
    When hearts like ours meet
    I fell for you like a child
    Oh, but the fire went wild
    I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire
    The ring of fire

    "I Walk The Line"

    I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
    I keep my eyes wide open all the time
    I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
    Because you're mine, I walk the line

    I find it very, very easy to be true
    I find myself alone when each day is through
    Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
    Because you're mine, I walk the line

    As sure as night is dark and day is light
    I keep you on my mind both day and night
    And happiness I've known proves that it's right
    Because you're mine, I walk the line

    You've got a way to keep me on your side
    You give me cause for love that I can't hide
    For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
    Because you're mine, I walk the line

    I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
    I keep my eyes wide open all the time
    I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
    Because you're mine, I walk the line
