Welcome to the Fabulous Curtis Edmonds Dot Com Website and Book Emporium

The Needle Tears a Hole
I don’t remember when I started really seriously worrying about the vaccine. It wasn’t right away. I don’t mean to say that I didn’t want the vaccine. I just thought that I would get it in good time. I am a fairly normal and average person, but I am maybe a little more vulnerable than… Continue reading The Needle Tears a Hole
