"Hurt" is not an original by Johnny Cash. The song was written by Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) in 1994 for the album The Downward Spiral. Rick Rubin had to insist several times on Cash recording his version, at first Johnny found the idea completely insane because the original version is industrial and noisy. At 71, already very ill, almost blind and with trembling hands, Cash completely transformed the band.
The iconic video, directed by Mark Romanek, was filmed at the House of Cash (his own museum). June Carter Cash appears looking at him fondly, the video was shot in February 2003, a few months before she died (May) and Johnny himself (September).
Trent Reznor was so moved that he declared, "This song is not mine anymore." It is considered one of the best covers of all time.

@marcorandazza That isn't the price of your house going up, it is the value of your dollar going down.

I’m not really that smart with money so flame away
But, does this investment really do you a lot of good. So you’ve got $1 million in stock. You can’t sleep in them. And the cost of a place to sleep keeps going up.
Maybe the answer is more complicated than 280 characters

She decided to rent instead of buying a home and invested the money she would’ve spent on a house into the stock market instead. Her portfolio is now approaching $1 million

@cicero_mn They're on par with Costco for price, and the stuff at Costco is much better quality. Just my $0.02

Aldi sucks.
You need a quarter for the cart. 👎
The cashier is sitting down. 👎
No bags. 👎
After shopping at Aldi, you need to go to a real grocery store to buy everything they don’t sell at Aldi. 👎
One positive: you don’t have to return the cart because the people that shop at Aldi will fight over a cart with a quarter in it.

When ant hills start cropping up all over the yard, the knee-jerk reaction for many is to sprint to the hardware store for a jug of heavy-duty, synthetic pesticide. But before flooding the lawn with harsh chemicals that can affect pets, helpful pollinators, and the local soil, it pays to look inside the kitchen pantry.
A remarkably effective, non-toxic hack for managing an ant problem requires nothing more than mixing equal parts baking soda and powdered sugar.
Here is exactly how it works and why it is so effective:
The Science Behind the Secret
The Bait: Ants have a massive sweet tooth, but they are incredibly smart foragers. They will easily sniff out and avoid pure baking soda. However, when it is meticulously mixed with finely ground powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar), they cannot separate the two. The sweetness masks the deterrent, drawing them in.
The Mechanism: Baking soda is highly alkaline. When ants consume it, it reacts with the acidic fluids in their digestive systems. Because ants cannot expel internal gas the way mammals can, the sudden chemical reaction is fatal to them.
The Delivery: Foragers won't just eat it on the spot; they will carry this sweet, lethal mixture back to the heart of the colony, effectively taking care of the root of the problem.
How to Apply It
Simply blend a 50/50 mix of the two ingredients in a container and shake well. Sprinkle it directly around the perimeter of active mounds or along known ant trails.
Other All-Natural Alternatives
If baking soda isn’t on hand, a few other household staples can disrupt pest patterns naturally:
White Vinegar: Spraying a simple solution of vinegar and water along entry points dissolves the scent trails ants use to navigate, leaving them completely disoriented.
Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade): A completely natural powder made from fossilized algae. It is harmless to humans and pets but breaks down the exoskeletons of crawling insects on contact.
Essential Oils: Peppermint, tea tree, and citrus oils act as powerful natural repellents. A few drops near windows and doors keep unwanted visitors at bay.
Relying on massive chemical interventions isn't always necessary to keep a property balanced. Sometimes, the safest, cheapest, and most elegant solutions are already sitting right next to the baking supplies.

@PeachProof23 You don't even have to do that... just boil a pot of water and drop it on them.

@EricFrandemo @winsindchat @S1NS1NS The verdict might be real, but the possibility of collecting it is not. So what is the point?

@EricFrandemo @winsindchat @S1NS1NS The million dollars awarded is fictitious if the person works for minimum wage, so you are insuring against a fake possibility.

@IngrahamAngle If you support the status quo then Massie might matter. It's all theater.

@ShadowofEzra There is no support lost for Trump or the USA or Massie. It is okay to keep them all.

President Trump has released a last minute video pleading with the people of Kentucky to stand with his AIPAC backed candidate over Thomas Massie.
Trump says Thomas Massie is the worst congressman in the history of the United States.

@MetalheadMarv The only thing that American Idol ever proved was that there were plenty of talented Americans that never got a shot at anything because they didn't have the right connections.

Carrie Underwood absolutely crushed it with Mötley Crüe on American Idol last night
She brought the power, the attitude, and proved once again she can rock with the best of them. What did everyone think of the performance? Did Carrie steal the show?
