Fan favorite “Fine Jams” has a few words to say about this guy whistling. To read his remarks and see the original version of this 1964 art & text click on the “LIFE WITH LIP” button on this page. Once you’re on the blog, just click the “comments” link below today’s comic.
Interesting that a guy who ‘plays for the other team’ just happens to be whistling a show tune as Angie Dickinson walks by. Some might call that ‘foreshadowing’ since she would eventually marry Burt Bacharach, who was exceptional at writing some catchy songs.
I remember helping chaperone some pool parties for young teenagers… it was very entertaining watching the kids try to not be noticed while they noticed other kids…

He’s resting right now, but he’ll soon resume lifting weights with his BFF here on Muscle Beach.

Old joke: Two young men at a singles party:
Man #1: “That girl over there is very pretty, but she doesn’t seem very intelligent.”
Man #2: “I know. She’s been ignoring me all evening, too.”

He’s just quietly whistling, “It’s fun to stay at the YMCA!”

He’s either a Village People member, or Eric Von Zipper from all the Beach Party movies.

Is this anything like 2 kids doing the “I’m not touching you” routine?

You probably should ignore a guy who wears a military style cap with a bathing suit. No fashion sense. :)

“When I hear a complimentary whistle
That greets my bikini by the sea
I turn and I glower and I bristle,
But I’m happy to know the whistle’s meant for me.

I remember growing up, the guys would hang out on the street corners and whistle at the girls as they walked by….hysterical!
The 40-50’s were a HOOT!
