One thing is wrong here: Marilyn Monroe committed suicide in August 1962; John Kennedy was assasinated in November 1963.

Thats right November 22nd 1963 Kennedy was shot, wasn't sure about Marilyn Monroe. Well done for spotting that.

I love things like this, (even if the Marilyn Monroe part was not correctly timed!!!) Wasn't there a Kennedy Assasination dollar bill, where the serial number related to the date ,times and State (Texas i.e. it's number in the States; such as the 51st state of the union???) to the assasination?
