Cover To Cover...‘Thriller’
Category: Entertainment Written by Terri Schlichenmeyer
You’ve seen the video at least two dozen times, maybe more. You’d watch it again right now if you could. You can’t stop ’til you get enough.
Seeing 1,500 orange-jumpsuit-clad inmates doing a perfectly-choreographed Zombie Dance brings back such happy memories. It makes you want to watch the original video, complete with the undead doing dance-steps you once copied.
You can probably still do those steps. You need to find those LPs you’ve got stored in the basement. You need to hear that tune again.
In the new book “Thriller: The Musical Life of Michael Jackson” by Nelson George, you’ll learn about that song and the album that smashed (and still holds) world records nearly 30 years after its release.

Dear Gwendolyn: I read your column all the time and now I need your advice. I have been going with my girlfriend for 12 years. We have four children. Five years ago I was sent to prison and I have nine more years to serve.
This is the problem: Before beginning to serve my sentence, my girlfriend told me that she loved me and would remain faithful to me.
Recently, I have been worrying she might be cheating on me. I hear how sometimes women say they will wait but don’t. Should I worry about her? Or should I just call off the relationship and move on with my life—Glen
