Trotting out the wares. One of the best places to get your new reptile pet is at a breeders' show, and one of the more common animals on offer is the ball python. They are very gentle, and make great companions, living to be as old as 40 years.
Internationally, more and more locally bred animals are sold as breeders use advanced selection and husbandry to develop new patterns, colors and styles, rather than buying specimens gathered from the wild with the associated destruction of their populations and native habitat.

...the tools needed.
Several days after the bite, my finger got infected and I just knew a tooth was left in there. So I had to get an antibiotic shot and then I had my mother take care of my infected finger.
My mother, who is an R.N., injected a numbing agent into my finger! That hurt worse than anything! SHE HAD TO STICK THE NEEDLE ON ONE SIDE, PUSH IT THROUGH MY FINGER AND HAVE IT POP OUT THE OTHER SIDE! All the while injecting the fluid in my finger. Ah! The horror! lol After the numbing agent started to work...all was well. I didn't feel a thing. She stuck that needle with the green head down into infected site. It started to bleed and all I did was squeeze my finger and POP! out came the tooth!
as "Monty" just finished eating. He's a Royal (ball) python (Pythn regius). I've cared for him for 30 years and he's most likely between 35 - 40 years old. "Royal pythons are native to west Africa. Photo by Frank. .
Benin. West Africa.
Ouidah
In most parts of the world snakes are feared, but in Benin they are revered. Royal pythons are worshiped in Benin, especially in Ouidah. The good news is that royal pythons are not dangerous, but the bad news is that these sacred reptiles are welcome Beninese households where they are fed when the doors of the temple are opened at night. There is no fear when the locals welcome these slithering pythons into their living rooms like an honoured guest.
The Temple of Pythons is a small room of twelve square meters that houses 50 adult royal pythons.

The tattoo sketch on.
The tattoo is a rod of Asclepius, which, for me, has taken on a special significance in my past several years of studying mythology and, ultimately, tied into me the philosophy I've been building on all my life. To me, it doesn't just represent medicine, but the human spirit of creativity and ingenuity and that this spirit is something that should be feared by any who seek to control and rule men, like the gods feared Asclepius' medical ability. Effectively, if there are gods, that they ought to fear men, since our power, in reality, greater than their power over us. Some see the myth as a lesson than men cannot change the natural order of the world--I see it as saying that humans do have the ability to take complete control of our fate, and that no one should have a right to stand in our way.
The model, of course, is our snake, Augustus (he does have those skull patterns), who can also be seen on this Flickr.
