Last week I had the pleasure of working with Snake Blocker(Deadliest warrior) and Jake Zweig (Top Shot) on a project in Colorado.

I just wanted to post the link to Snakes website for your enjoyment(http://www.snakeblocker.com/). Karen Hood from www.survival.com gave me permission to use her picture with snake.

Anyhoo,

Where does his name come from?

The Lipan Apaches see the snake to be a very misunderstood creature by many outsiders. It is not to be thought of as a representation of evil, but as a symbol of strength. By shedding its skin, the snake symbolizes change in the cycle of birth, life, death, and eternal life. It counts among its strengths the power of creation; power of sexuality; power to know one's self, as well as, of transformation. Snake-people are rare, because as part of their experiences, they have to have to come into contact with poison and have been able to transform the poison in their bodies into something harmless. The snake belongs to the element of fire, which causes desire and passion in the physical realm and in the spiritual realm, creating a connection with God and wisdom. Whenever the snake appears in your dreams, it is a sign of change as you come ever closer to your destiny and true goals. The snake is also used to mark rivers...for snake-people flow and adapt like a river. The snake is also associated with flashes of lightning, as both are feared for their speed and deadly power. Very few Apaches are given this name because of the value attached to it.
