Sleepless intern Ben Conniff has been watching the watchers. Here's his report:
Since 9/11 and the Patriot Act, everyday Americans can assume that their internet history, library records, and private conversations are making lively water cooler banter at the FBI building. We complain, but the Feds have been snooping into the private lives of celebrities for a whole lot longer. Recently declassified documents from the 1940s to 1970s show that J. Edgar Hoover had an intimate knowledge of the A-list's doings. Very intimate.
Among the FBI's findings: Elvis Presley got some special “treatments” from a male dermatologist in the army, while Jimi Hendrix couldn't stop practicing solo in his barracks. Comedy duo Abbott and Costello were porn addicts. Even our first centerfold, the unimpeachable Marilyn Monroe, may have had a sex tape stashed away. Read the full story on J. Edgar's voyeurism here.

WOW!! This is actually very scary but it makes sense. JEH had so much to hide so he was fixated on others. Leslie Nielsen's "Naked Gun 33 and third" said it best without saying anything just a close up of his 'former uniform ' framed on the wall, lace panties, tutu and all!
