Is it just me or does anyone else feel resentment towards Patricia Kennealy
because of the way she was with Jim. I mean I never could take to her,
couldn't stand her, didn't and never will like her. To me she did to Jim
what Yoko Ono did to the Beatles.. anyone else feel this way?

You don't have to agree with me, but don't attack me like sharks and down
right cuss me out for my opinion of Kennealy either, please.

Keneally was just another girl in Jim's eyes. Jim is the lover of Keneally's
life in her eyes. She had no effect on him, just as Yoko had no effect on
The Beatles. There were problems in the group long before Yoko arrived.

I really don't give a crap about Jims girlfriends.

I don't see that there's any way to compare her to Yoko Ono. For one thing,
John Lennon loved Yoko Ono, devoted his life to her, married her. Jim denied
even knowing Kennealy and was obviously embarrassed of her and by her. Yoko
Ono had tremendous influence over John Lennon (though she didn't "do" anything
to the Beatles), while Pamela was Jim's muse. There's nothing to indicate that
Kennealy influenced Morrison to any extent beyond making him hide every once in
a while to avoid her if she chased him to L.A.

The problem with Jim was he was such a huge witch, that he had
a heck of a time dealing with it. It makes sense if he turned towards
that witchy woman.

The Beatles simply burned out, too much drugs, too much publicity,
too much security eventually caught up with them. When creativity
dies whats the point. They would not have been happy turning out
shit.

The only thing that Kennealy was to Jim was a major pest and all that
Patricia had with him was a roll in the hay.
I am not attacking you Tami, but how in the world do you see any
similarities between Kennealy and Yoko? Don't insult poor Yoko that
way. :)

I think Kennealy is aware on some level that she didn't mean as much to
JM as she would have liked. The fact that her website is a one way
street and that she's insulated against snail mail is, I think, a mute
testimony to her lack of confidence in her self-created imaginary world.

I'm guessing that if JM had survived he would be her bitterest enemy and
she wouldn't even be in his thoughts.

There really is no comparison between Yoko Ono and Kennealy -- apart
from the banal fact that they both had relationships with famous rock
stars. But Yoko Ono has a world class brain and Kennealy's is second
rate at best. Comparing them is like comparing Mozart and Salieri, to
borrow an Ono-ism.

Ray said PKM loved Jim, "madly." Janet Erwin said, "Jim had been trying to let
her
down gently since Miami..."
Maybe Jim was really sending her "love' letters & poems from France. That'll
screw up anybodys head...

IMO, I think Jim loved Pam. He always went back to her & in the end was w/her.
Almost every book written by one of the women Jim slept with or had an affair
all say basicly the same thing, Jim loved Pam.The feeling was he let that be
known.
Question becomes , how do you deal with it? Sleep w/someone that beautiful &
not become emotionally attached. Most of them couldn't deal with it.
I understand the hurt but taking on his last name after he died??? I always
wonderd about that. That's a serious thing to do. Any comments on that,
anyone??

Good point. Anyway I always thought it was Ringos nose that broke up

I don't think she had much influence on Jim, at least not as much as Yoko had
on John...

I don't really care either way about Patricia...

*Apologizes to Yoko* It just seemed that in the movie, Patricia was so
consumed with Jim, it's like she tried to isolate him for just herself
alone, and as she tells it, she and Pam got into quite a few cat fights over
Jim with Jim present in the room. (Patricia said she once through Pamela
down a flight of stairs and was surprised she didn't kill her)

I never liked Patricia because it seemed to me like she tried to do that,
and he loved Pam... ok, I'll stop now. I doubt I'm making any sense with
this post. Anyone know what I mean, what I'm trying to get at with the
Patricia was with Jim. If not, than I'll just shut up.

The thing is Patricia DOESN'T deserve to carry Jim's last name I don't care
if they were married in a Wiccan-style wedding or a Christian wedding.
Pamela deserved his last name more than Patricia EVER did.

Umm...

#1. The movie is the last thing you'd want to consider a reliable source.
#2. You're thinking about the "Thanksgiving duck" scene in the movie which
is 100% fiction. ("You actually put your dick in this woman Jim?" "Well,
sometimes yeah." Hehe, I do love that part).
#3. It was not Pamela that Patricia knocked down the stairs. It was a woman
who goes by the name Tiffany (and Miz Scarlett online).

I don't understand this.....since when did Patricia Kennealy ever have such a
great impact on the Doors as a band?

It seems like a terrible analogy to be comparing her to Yoko Ono. I don't see
how they are alike in anyway. It never seemed to me, from what I've read, that
whatever relationship Kennealy had with Morrison ever had an effect on the band
as a whole.

But you have to remember that Kennealy wrote her own part in the movie, the
price Oliver Stone had to pay in order to use Kennealy's real name. So what
you see is nothing but Kennealy's fantasy of how things were. Pamela wasn't
the "cat fighting" type. If Kennealy threw Pamela down a flight of stairs, I
assure you it was only in her mind and never in reality. Pamela may have been
half Kennealy's size, but she owned guns and knew how to use them, and she was
nowhere near the cream puff Kennealy likes to make her out to be. Pamela also
had several very large, potentially mean male friends who would've happily beat
the shit out of anyone who ever laid a hand on her, had Pamela only asked, Babe
Hill chief among them. If anything, Pamela felt sorry for Kennealy and her
obsession with Jim. When Kennealy showed up at their door and made the big
revelation to Pam that Kennealy had supposedly aborted Jim's child, Pamela
simply said to Kennealy, "How interesting; I never met one of Jim's women
before." She later told her mother she thought it was a shame Kennealy hadn't
kept the baby if she loved Jim so much.

PB:
Pam was just too cool! I love these little tid bits about her. The
trivial things are so facinating to me. I mean, it is so odd to picture
Pamela holding a gun.
And the whole meeting with Patricia K. (if that meeting even took place.
I have to remember that we ARE talking about Kennealy here.) is classic.
"'How interesting. I've never met one of Jim's women before.'" Classy,
classy.
Keep sharing these little stories Pat, I love them. (Yes, I've read your
book, too).

I will not presume to speak for the late Jim Morrison, but personally,
I would be VERY upset if ANY of the dozens and dozens of female fans I
have had sex with over the three decades of my music career decided to
use my last name without my permission. My consenting to one or more
(or any number for that matter) of sexual interludes with a woman does
not in any way confer any additional rights or privileges that I have
not directly expressed of my own free will. (My two ex-wives, Sheree
and Nancy Jean, who are the mothers of my five children, had my
permission to use the name Clark. No one else has so far, although
several stalkers have tried everything short of it.) In the case of Jim
Morrison, his death precludes the ability to give such consent.

Again, speaking only for myself, I personally do not find either
Patricia Kennealy or Pamela Courson to be attractive, physically,
intellectually, or spiritually. Now Nico, on the other hand...

Whats the big deal? Its not like Jim Morrison is the only person who
had the last name of Morrison and Clark is not a unique last name
either. So anyone can go and change their last name to whatever they

The big deal is that she is using the name to associate herself in
marriage with Jim. She isn't even saying, "My name is Pamela Morrison
and I'm his 8th cousin" or some other distant relation like that.
She's claiming she's his wife.

At the same time, he did get married. Drunk or not, the rules don't
change. Being drunk - even being Jim Morrison - doesn't disqualify
you from responsibility.

I'm aware of all that. Except we are talking about Patricia not Pamela.

But who cares. There are a lot bigger problems in the world than
whether some woman thinks she was married to Jim Morrison.

You know, I would have been willing to be persuaded that my initial impression
of you as a complete asshole might possibly be flawed -- until this post.
You're simply a jerk. You don't find "Pamela Courson to be attractive,
physically, intellectually, or spiritually"? Oh really? And just when did you
ever even meet Pamela Morrison, let alone get to know her so intimately that
you can speak about her intellectual or spiritual attributes? And I'm sure
she's in the afterlife with Jim really kicking herself that she never got a
chance to be groped by such a self-centered, egomaniacal poser like you.

There was no "responsibility" involved. That ceremony only holds water with
people who believe in such things (and even then it doesn't mean beans
legally), which Jim quite obviously didn't.

I love the quote from the movie, that said "Women are such noble creatures,
they carry on your name with dignity after you die"

I don't know if I'm missing a line in that quote or not, and since the movie
has very little credit to it being true or not, I have no idea if Jim really
said that or not. I just love the quote.

Well ya know to all the people who it offends why not pretend that she
changed her last name to Morrison in honor of Barney Wilbert Morrison
who is a Wal Mart greeter with a penchant for wearing womens
undergarments? That way it won't be offensive.

In my original response to his post I had added that I wasn't sure that

If I correctly remember my contract law, a contract, including a
marriage contract, can be voided (annulled) if the mental incapacity of
one or more of the contractees can be proven to be diminished.

Your juvenile use of name-calling nouns with no scientific meaning such
as "asshole" and "jerk" ill becomes your supposed literary ability as a
published author. Stick to the issues and rise above the immature ad
hominem attacks.

Excuse me, but aren't you the person whose ENTIRE career is based on
this very same woman whom YOU ALSO HAVE NEVER MET ????

Furthermore, all of us are entitled to find or not find anyone
attractive as we are so naturally inclined by our own feelings and
intellect. No one can dictate to another who they MUST find attractive.

I also notice that you did not get the least bit upset over my holding
the same opinion about Patricia Kennealy. Financially motivated
selective outrage, perhaps?

Actually, Todd, I wrote one book about two people -- Jim and Pamela Morrison.
My "ENTIRE career" is not based on the book, nor is the book based on one
person. Beyond that, I don't believe you'll find anywhere in that book a
section where I pronounce judgment on either of these people's personal
attributes, whether it be physical, intellectual, or spiritual, let alone say
that they aren't worthy of my attention because I feel they were lacking in one
or more of these areas.

>Furthermore, all of us are entitled to find or not find anyone

All you're qualified to say, then, is that you don't find photos of Pamela
physically attractive. You are not qualified to express an opinion beyond
that.

>I also notice that you did not get the least bit upset over my holding

Yes, you're right, Todd. It was all financially motivated. Everyone knows I
get paid a commission every time someone says something insulting about
Patricia Kennealy. Guess you have me all figured out there. Beyond that, if
you were too stupid to grasp the point being made about Pamela, you are
obviously too stupid to understand that the point applies to both of the women
you insulted.

In a strict technical sense, you are correct. But if you're going to
apply so severe a standard to my opinions, then you should also apply
it equally, not only to all others in this news group, but to everyone
on every fan-oriented site who ever comments on anyone that they never
knew well personally. The entire celebrity industry would then come to
a near standstill.

Jim Morrison deals with this sociological phenomenon extensively in
"The Lords and the New Creatures".

This poem from page twenty-nine says it well:

There are no longer "dancers," the possessed.
The cleavage of men into actors and spectators
is the central fact of our time. We are obsessed
with heroes who live for us and whom we punish.
If all the radios and televisions were deprived
of their sources of power, all books and paintings
burned tomorrow, all shows and cinemas closed,
all the arts of vicarious existence...

We are content with the "given" in sensation's
quest. We have been metamorphosised from a mad
body dancing on a hillside to a pair of eyes
staring in the dark.

as does this second stanza from page eighty-nine:

The Lords appease us with images. They give us
books, concerts, galleries, shows, cinemas. Es-
pecially the cinemas. Through art they confuse
us and blind us to our enslavement. Art adorns
our prison walls, keeps us silent and diverted
and indifferent.

My point is that you have a vested interest in the continuous promotion
of Jim & Pam as an iconic couple along the lines of the celebrity
driven romances of John & Yoko and Sid & Nancy.

> Beyond that, if you were too stupid to grasp the point being made

I was merely expressing my personal feelings. No direct insult was
intended, but I can see how one was inferred. For that, I do apologize
to both women.

Patricia was one of 4 female rock journalists Jim bedded and proposed to. In
No One Here Gets Out Alive, for the sake of brevity, we used her story because
of the Wicca ceremony. We never meant to imply she was Jim's other woman.
Then Oliver Stone combined her with two other characters and suddenly she's
bigger than she was.
Now she's claiming she came up with the anagram for Mr. Mojo Risin'
which the Doors clearly recall Jim coming up with in rehearsal. While I hear
Patricia was sitting in the Doors office parking lot pointing this out to him.

From what I can see, she seems to have been just a more often than
not pain in the ass that provided a bit of interest and entertainment
for Jim (the Wicca thing and of course another piece of ass). I wonder
if that "relationship" (had he lived) would've become the original
"Fatal Attraction". She seems to have the proper chemical balances for
it.
One's own immortality is beyond dispute...

At one time she had an e-mail link or perhaps it was a general

regarding Jim's family and their overall thoughts as to his chosen
life style. She was very gracious in her answer. She explained to me
that... ... ... oh what a minute - over a year later and she hasn't
even acknowledged the question let alone answered it.

The main thing that bored the hell out of me about her site was the
amount of space that she uses explaining why "everyone" that Jim knew,
besides herself, were/are in general the bad guys.

I agree - that would have been very stupid. Perhaps if they used the
term "living" instead of career.

Is it my imagination or are you just a very bitter human being?

Is your book the one with the great "Themis" photos in it?

Without the driving force of ego, no art is possible.

At least not art of any worthwhile caliber...

Until you understand this, you will never understand the Doors as a
group.

And you will certainly never understand Jim Morrison as an individual.

If the internet had existed when Morrison was alive, I could easily see
a critic revising Jim's theoretical posting signature to read:

James Douglas Morrison
Poet-Vocalist-Philosopher-Erotic Politician-Egotist
The Doors
Los Angeles, California

I suggest that you read Salvador Dali's classic manifesto "Declaration
of the Artist's Right to His Own Madness".

Or else buy any album by The Artist Formerly Known As Prince.

Had they used the term "living" it would have been just as inaccurate. I make
a "living" from my job. I make a career from my writing. The Morrison book
was simply one project out of that career, and apart from what I currently do
for a living.

Thank you for that much at least.

First of all, it is not sexist when both partners are mutually
consenting adults. And it is definitely not sexist when the woman is
the initiator, as many were. Secondly, I come from a culture (Iroquois)
in which women are respected, empowered, honored, and cherished, and
our clan mother system and matriarchal social order is, in many ways,
the forerunner of the modern women's movement. I'm sorry if the so-
called boasting offends the conservative norms and mores of Eurocentric
society, but I was simply trying to convey what a nightmare it would be
if all the women Jim Morrison or any other performer had ever slept
with were to come forward and begin using his or her last name. I used
myself as an example in order not to presume to speak for another.

I really don't see anything wrong with Pamela having used Jims last
name. She took his last name while he was living and he was aware of
it and it didn't bother him, from what I can gather from all the info
out there.
Patricia Kennealy, on the other hand, took his name after he died and
she is the one that I hope you are directing your comments to on the
subject of name taking. She really has no right to take Jim 's name.
In my book, that is a disgrace to him...when it is so obvious that he
really wouldn't go for THAT ONE!

You reveal yourself to be more full of shit with each new post. You're about
as Iroquiois as my cat is, and I'm sure your tales of sexual exploits would go
over big in an 8th grade locker room, but here it sounds like so much wishful
thinking. Real men don't need to brag about such things. Only little pretend
men who have nothing to really brag about need to go around shouting about how
macho they are.

Actually, "chauvinism" refers to excessive and thoughtless patriotism, or of
partiality-and-loyalty to one's own interest group. The term takes its name
from Nicholas Chauvin, a character in Cogniard's 19th century play, and an
ultra-patriotic devotee of Napoleon's.

The use of the term as applied to discrimination by gender is much newer,
and not entirely accurate.

According to the new Oxford Dictionary it is accurate.

Regardless, boasting about ones sexual exploits in neither sexist or

How was Patricia with Jim? I'd like to read specifics please.

Yoko Ono did nothing to John Lennon. He was an intelligent man. His
choices were his alone.

Jim's dead (surprise surprise) there's no way to prove the things Ms.
Kennealy claims until after the year 2000. Why don't we all make our
decisions about the woman AFTER she has released the papers given to her
before his death? Papers she says will prove many things regarding his
relationship with her.

THe fact remains, Morrison's life away from the watchful eye of the band

Kennealy did not have total control of the script. Her book goes in
great detail about the movie. If one is to believe your book Ms. Butler
then we must give the same respect to Ms. Kennealy's book.
Anyway, the movie is a fantasy, the sequences of events are not true to
the real time frame in which they happened.
According to Ms. Kennealy's book, she never threw Pam down the stairs...
They smoked some pot together and drank wine.

Your quote attributed to Pam, "How interesting; I never met one of Jim's
women before." Is similar to the quote Ms. Kennealy wrote in her book.

I don't know that he gave her anything. Do you? It certainly seems as though
she keeps conveniently "discovering" new things all the time. She must have
quite a messy apartment if she still keeps turning up new stuff after 28 years.
She did turn up at the Miami trial to try to get Jim to marry her. Nothing
like adding to his stress. He told Babe Hill, who was there with Jim, that she
was a problem he had to take care of, that she was making all sorts of claims,
saying they'd been married, which he had no memory of whatsoever. She'd turn
up occassionally in L.A. looking for him, too, and Jim would have to hide and
ask others to help him keep her away from him. Stalker? What do you think?


>I have my own doubts about the truths she espouses but I'm willing to

She can legally do whatever she wants right now but she won't. There's nothing
stopping her from distributing this information. And she won't be any more
legally entitled to within her lifetime. That whole copyright bullshit is just
that -- bullshit. She's never asked for permission, and the copyright won't
lapse in her lifetime.

I'd say he could. And, since he denied Kennealy's claims and left the country
with another woman, I'd say he made those "motivations, loves or thoughts"
quite clear.

Actually, Stone had to agree to let her rewrite her character in the movie in
order for him to have permission to use her real name, so she did, in fact,
have pretty close control over that aspect of the script.

Her book goes in

That's pretty convoluted logic. That's like saying, If one is to believe the

Todd and Tami, Dawn...

Patricia Keneally wrote and published a slew of popular sci-fi books titled
the Keltiad, using her real name, Patricia Keneally. She never spoke
publicly about Jim until the movie was made in the mid 90's, at that point
she felt she should write her own book, She did not use his last name
earlier because she would be accused of making money off of his name. I
believe 1996, was the first year she added Morrison to her name and to her
books.
The Wiccian ceremony is considered a legal document of marriage.
Recognized under the freedom of religion laws in all states.
Pam while certainly at one time Jim's lover and friend used the name Pam
"Morrison." Without the benefit of a legal marriage. Jim certainly made no
move to make her his wife...
I'm not going to bag on Pamela. She's dead. She lived the "high" and died
the "high" life. She was a beautiful woman. Nobody really knows how the use
of drugs changed her personality....or his. I wish she were still alive.
If she deserved his last name then why didn't he want to marry her?

Wow. You're not only way out of line, you're not even accurate.

That's not true. She was talking about and writing about Jim long before the
thought of the movie had come up. In fact, her "bio" started out to be a novel
but she couldn't sell it. It was only when the movie was made and there was a
demand for Morrison books that she was able to sell the thing, only revamped as
"non-fiction."

She did not use his last name
>earlier because she would be accused of making money off of his name.

And how is that any different than using it later for the same reason?

> The Wiccian ceremony is considered a legal document of marriage.
>Recognized under the freedom of religion laws in all states.

This is simply false. This is in no way a legal ceremony nor a legal marriage.
Kennealy was never legally married to anyone, least of all Jim Morrison.

>Pam while certainly at one time Jim's lover and friend used the name Pam
>"Morrison." Without the benefit of a legal marriage. Jim certainly made no
>move to make her his wife...

Really? Then how do you explain all those marriage licenses the two of them
kept taking out? And the fact that he told his friends they wanted to get
married? In fact, simply the fact that he very publicly acknowledged her as
his companion while hiding from Kennealy if she ever showed up in town and
getting the people at the Doors office to tell her he was out of the country?
Pamela and Jim lived together from 1966 until his death. They came one hell of
a lot closer to "the benefit of legal marriage" than Kennealy could ever dream

If Kennealy deserved Morrison's last name, why did she have to wait until he
and Pamela were both long dead to use it? Pamela used Jim's last name with
Jim's full approval and blessing. He loved that she called herself Morrison.
He called her that, too. So did his friends refer to her as Pamela Morrison.
In fact, Jim referred to Pam's parents as "the in-laws." No one who knew the
two of them ever thought of any other woman as holding that place in Jim's life
-- no one.

Really? Well if that's true why is Patricia so pissed about the movie? Why
does she claim that very little about she and Jim in the film is accurate? Do
you mean she lied to Oliver and then lied about what she lied about?

I'm sure you've been corrected on this, but PKM never claimed to have thrown
Pam down a flight of stairs. She contends that all of her dealings with Pam
were civil, maybe even boardering on pleasant.

I just really want to know Patricia. Do you really think that the Courson's
would grant her that permission? Do you actually think PKM should even bother
to ask them? Can you understand why she won't ask for it? I certainly can.
Likewise, I can understand why they wouldn't grant the permission in the first
place!

Also, again... before this repeats... The copyright is up in three years.
She'll still be quite alive by then.

I know exactly why she won't ask for it. If she did, and they granted it,
she'd be up shit's creek without an excuse. She never presented this scenario
as she wouldn't ask the Coursons for permission, she's always presented it that
they refused to give that permission, thus making them the bad guys.

I certainly can.

And, by the way, they hated my guts and threatened to sue me every day over my
book, but I got permission for all the poetry I wanted to use. I doubt the
Coursons even see these requests. Kennealy could quite easily get permission
if she really wanted to, but she doesn't.

You seem to be getting your copyright information straight from Kennealy. Best
check up on your facts. The copryight for this material will not be up in
Kennealy's lifetime, nor in most of ours, either.

No, she's pissed because Stone made Pamela appeared more important than
Kennealy wanted him to (thought still not as important as she was) and because
he portrayed -- accurately -- Jim telling her in Miami that he was stoned
during the so-called "wedding" and just thought it would be a fun thing to do
at the time.

The person who posted here that Kennealy threw Pam down the stairs was
corrected on that, yes.

Hi Terri!
Where ya been?
I think the above is a good call.
Lies, then lying about the lies.
Seems to be the case with PK.

Most likely because they had seen all the poetry that you had access to. As
far as I know, they don't know what PKM has and I doubt they want to open that
Pandora's Box.

<<Kennealy could quite easily get permission if she really wanted to, but she

Again, I don't see why she should have to ask their permission in the first
place. But she would have to, no matter how ridiculous it is. Regardless of
whether or not they would grant the permission (which I doubt)... if she
doesn't want to grovel to them, I don't blame her.

<< Best check up on your facts. The copryight for this material will not be up

Okay. Do you mind sharing the information you have regarding the copyright
then? Why is she saying the copyright is up in three years when it won't be?
What do you think is her motivation for that?

I assume you didn't hear this from her. She told everyone else something
completely different.

Hi Fab! Nice to hear a kind voice!

<<Where ya been?>>

Oh, just lurking, you know. Since I've been back on here, I'm already falling
way behind in everything I need to do. But, I just can't resist sometimes. ;-)

Seems like a lot of trouble to me. Well anyway, from what I remember about you
Fab, you and I pleasantly agreed to disagree and that sure makes things easier
around here... and promotes healthy relationships! Take care!
