In law: Associate(s) or summer associate(s) included on reimbursement forms for lunch expenses who were not actually present at lunch on the day in question. Utilized for the purpose of evading per diem caps on lunch expenses while consuming gratuitous amounts of food and wine.
Summer associate (SA): (picking up phone) Hello?
Associate (A): Did you go to lunch today?
SA: Yeah, need a phantom?
A: Badly, we went all out at Dorsia this afternoon and I'm way over the budget.
SA: Hmmm. You can always use Zach. No one ever invites him to lunch.
A: Of course! He's the ideal phantom.

This is better (and funnier) alternative to the ooo so classic "Beep and Wave."
To execute a Phantom driver must slow down (20mph is good enough) once pedesdrians are seen on the left hand side of the road or bustoppers. Once seen the passenger must wind down their window completely, then get the top half of their body out of the car so their hips are resting on the top of the CLOSED door. When parralel to the pedestrians the passenger must raise arms up full into the air and shout PHANTOM in their ear.
It works best is the pedestrians are walking in the same direction in the car, as they can be caught off gaurd.
This is an extremly funny and satafying move for both the Phantomer and the driver and other passangers.
Possible Hazards:
Falling out the window
Catching stomach on door locking pin (mine is snapped off because of this)
High speed Phamtoming is not advised.
Getting stoppped by the Feds hah
Happy Phamtoming!!

The Phantom is an American adventure comic strip created by Lee Falk, also creator of Mandrake the Magician. A popular feature adapted into many media, including television, film and video games, it stars a costumed crimefighter operating from the fictional African country Bangalla.
The Phantom is the 21st in a line of crimefighters that originated in 1536, when the father of British sailor Christopher Walker was killed during a pirate attack. Swearing an oath on the skull of his father's murderer to fight evil, Christopher started the legacy of the Phantom that would be passed from father to son, leaving people to give the mysterious figure nicknames such as "The Ghost Who Walks", "Guardian of the Eastern Dark" and "The Man Who Cannot Die", believing him to be immortal.
Unlike many fictional costumed heroes, the Phantom does not have any superpowers but relies mainly on his strength, intelligence, and fearsome reputation of being an immortal ghost to defeat his foes. The 21st Phantom is married to Diana Palmer, whom he met while studying in the United States; they have two children, Kit and Heloise. Like all previous Phantoms, he lives in the ancient Skull Cave, and has a trained wolf, Devil, and a horse named Hero.
The series began with a daily newspaper strip on February 17, 1936, followed by a color Sunday strip on May 28, 1939; both are still running as of 2014. At the peak of its popularity, the strip was read by over 100 million people each day.

Lee Falk continued working on The Phantom until his death in 1999. Today, the comic strip is produced by writer Tony DePaul and artists Paul Ryan (Monday-Saturday) and Terry Beatty (Sunday). Previous artists on the newspaper strip include Ray Moore, Wilson McCoy, Bill Lignante, Sy Barry, George Olesen, Keith Williams, Fred Fredericks, Graham Nolan and Eduardo Barreto.
New Phantom stories are published in comic books in different parts of the world, among them by Dynamite Entertainment in the United States, Egmont in Sweden, Norway and Finland (not anymore), and Frew Publications in Australia.
The Phantom was the first fictional hero to wear the skintight costume that has now become a hallmark of comic book superheroes and was also the first shown wearing a mask with no visible pupils, another superhero standard.
