Hmm. Everyone knows that Morrison faked his own death. He came back as comedian Chevy Chase. Pamela Courson faked her death too and came back as Jayni Chase . . .

He made my parents and my life a living hell when I was a tenager. I graduated high school at sixteen so I could leave the house and go to college to escape.

He got arrested at least once a month and sometimes more. Live in a small town with that going on. Get told, you’ll be just like him...

Yeah, I don’t claim to be superior to others for not taking drugs, but I sure don’t feel sorry for them as adults still doing the same thing and getting in trouble.

It’d be nice to have it. Wonder if the press would like a copy?

Val Kilmer’s portrayal of Jim Morrison was cathartic to me... as it looked like a piece of my life on the screen. I passed through that life and survived as the bible says a person passes through fire.

Val Kilmer did that movie about the doors in the 1990s. At the time I thought it was worth the ticket.

If I didn’t know Belushi died at the age of 33 I would’ve thought you were Jim.

He was my stepbrother. He was only 3 months older than me and you can’t get much closer than that and not be actual blood brothers.

In the end, he didn’t die of an overdose but the diseases you can get from doing them.

He always looked younger than his age till his mid 30’s and then aged rapidly. The last time I saw him before he went to the hospital to die, he looke d like he was 70, when he was 45.

I’m sorry. I know the story because same with my cousin who did the same and got a brain aneuysm that killed her in her early 30s. We were very close. IThe aneuysm was linked to the drug usage I’m sure, and when I heard over the phone from my uncle, her father, what happened I literally had the sensation of someone punching me in the stomach and doubled over.

I think of her all the time. We were only a year apart. I never did drugs, she did for years. She was a beautiful girl.
