I've always been a fan of this movie but with the discovery about that opening title credits aerial view of Fort Lauderdale Beach, I am now an even bigger fan. Great theme song too!

Watch the old 70s film with Charleton Heston, “The Planet of the Apes” and look at the high water marks on the rocks surrounding Lake Powell. The enviros love to point these things out these days as bad news. Funny that they were there in the 70s.

On Sunday, November 26, 1961, I was walking down a street in Bern, Switzerland when I was amazed to notice that Where the Boys Are was being shown in a local movie theater.

I prefer to reference "Girl Happy." Because I was in "Girl Happy."

Connie Francis, who sang the theme song of Where the Boys Are, later got political and recorded a campaign song for Richard Nixon in 1968.

Nixon's the One

Well, yeah. But only because global warming is making the seabed sink.

I know for a fact that Rockaway Beach is exactly where it was 60 years ago, but it wasn’t 55 years ago, after Hurricane Donna. I remember water under the boardwalk for months afterwards. They just pumped water from the ocean back onto the beach.

It is hard make any judgment one way or the other about sea level based on one locality. Land rises and subsumes. Louisiana is sinking, and it has nothing to do with rising oceans, it’s due to sinking land.

Modern satellite geodesy probably gives us our first really reliable measurements of sea level, and yes it is rising, but no more quickly than at the beginning of the 20th Century.

Of course the beach is the same size as it was. So’s my beach on long island. But they never ask me

“Where the Boys Are” is a guilty pleasure.

Finally! A source of climate dara we can trust!

Claim That Sea Level Is Rising Is a Total Fraud

Sea levels began to rise 18k years ago at the end of the last glacial period. They have risen about 135 meters since then which is an average of 7.5 millimeters per year. That is an average of 750 mm per century (29.5 inches) which is far more than the average over the last century.

From 1880 to 2000 sea level rose about 20 cm or just under 8 inches. Far far less than the nearly 30 inches per century average over the last 18,000 years.

Haven’t figured out how to make a link with my Samsung Mega but “Where the Boys Are” is on YouTube.
