FROM THE MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE -1974

Carburetors man, that’s what life is all about
That’s what life is all about
That’s what life is all about
That’s what life is all about
That’s what life is all about

I was not myself last night
Lost a fight, my woody barely running
By a dude I should have beat
And on the street a blow like that is stunning

I finally lost control
And tore my tuck-n-roll
Upholstery – Where my baby sits up close to me
That’s supposed to be what our life is all about
Upholstery where my baby sits up close to me
That’s supposed to be what our life is all about

Of all life’s mysteries the greatest one I’ve seen
My short runs better when it’s clean

I was not myself last night
Ran a light without my registration
Where the cops were bound to see
And you know me already on probation
I wound up on parole
I tore my tuck-n-roll
Upholstery – Where my baby sits up close to me
That’s supposed to be what our life is all about
Upholstery where my baby sits up close to me
That’s supposed to be what our life is all about

94 Years of Phantoms

    I found your blog by complaining about the same changes on MSN blog that you did! GIVE ME MY ALBUMS BACK! If you visit my blog which should be included here is a link to the loftus wolf page He does pro photography of his animals and knows a lot about copyright infringements and how to avoid them. ZThe list should be on the right side column.
    Better yet I\’m a car person! well that\’s the best way to describe someone who keeps cars like they keep pets. I am currently trying to home a 1968 Olds Vista Cruiser. (That 70\’s Show) I am in AZ and live in a rust free zone ( and I KNOW what rust is cause I lived there too, and had Flinstone mobiles you stopped with your feet through the floor boards! There is also a 55, 1st series, 1/2 T PU (one of 600 or so I believe). Runs and Drives. In Poly Satin Primer. HAs been in storage for at least the 23 years that I have known it.  Enjoy our blog and Where Wolves Rescue website. Sincerely Pangaya.

  7. Amaltea says:

    Just a hi….
    Read your complain to msn, really like your words, hope they listen….And then I visit your site and I really enjoyed looking at your old fine photos, some grate collection….

    Hi Moe,
     
    I also read your comment to MSN (Torres) about the needless changes to the photo section of Spaces. I simply use my space as an information point for my trivia room on Paltalk and list the rules regulations etc for our "roomies".  I also add their pictures when requested. I run approx 5 albums with the main default album titled One Stop Owners (One Stop Trivia being the Paltalk room name). Since these darn changes I have people complaining that i\’ve removed their pictures etc., so I\’ve had to put an explanation in the blog area about MSN and its new system. If i now add a picture to an album, THAT particular album then becomes the default startup album and to get it back the way I want it I have to do a dead edit on the Main album to get it to load as default. What a runaround. Mike Torres thinks the new system is better hey, well tell him to do dead edits to albums to get it back to the way it should run. It was perfect before with all albums showing and now the drop down box people are confused as to where to find their pics. It was simply a matter then of shuffling the albums into the viewing order you wanted them. I cant seem to be able to do that now. They order themselves after editing. NOT GOOD ENOUGH MSN. Once again we have lost our control over a product that needed no enhancement just so Microsoft can play big brother.

    Loved your Websight. Would like to know how to generate one for me just like yours. Loved the slide show along with the speed variance pointer. Been reading your comments for a long time on our flathead club posts. You\’ve probably seen some of my comments on the posts. Hope to meet you someday. I\’m located in Branson, Mo. Retired from teaching from Tampa and Ft.Myers, Fla. Taught Vocational Edu. Auto restoration classes, welding, drafting and engineering classes. Knew Don "swamp rat"  G. Been to his shop many times, home in Seffner, meseum, ran with two of his crew people until he moved to Gainsville. I say him watering his trees at his new home in Gainseville but he acted like he didn\’t know me??? He use to called me the TEACHER as I don\’t think he ever knew my name.  I usually am always just in the background but none the least I was there and trying to learn and improove my automotive education. He did comment on my Yellow 34 coupe at an auto show in Orlando that he liked what I had done on it. Won first place too. He dayviewed his new sirewinder dragster at that show. I wonder if he is a member of our flathead group?? I\’m sure he is but do not know his handle. I\’ve been building hot rods since 1959. Drag raced for 7 years but had to put everything on back burners because of family and kids. Now that I\’m finally retired, I am getting ready to put my 23 cars together. Hope to hear from you in the future! LOVED YOUR WEB SITE!
