Get the Raymond Carver mug.Johnny Ramone is a legendary guitarist for the famouse band, the Ramones. The Ramones are often credited for inventing punk music. Johnny Ramone was the originator of the down stroke 8th note guitar style. This was very hard to pull off, but somehow Johnny pulled it off for hours and hours of play.

We'll miss you, Johnny!

Get the razor ramon mug.
A name giving to the nicest person you could ever hope to meet. Welcoming and thoughtful Ramona is the girl everyone one wants to meet, but few really know. Why? That can’t be answered because she is sincerely one of the most kindhearted people they could possibly find in the world today. Long black hair and beautiful dark brown eyes that look black together with her amazing tan skin set Ramona apart from others. A sweet smile, lovely voice, and pure heart make her a must in everyone’s life. Amazing taste in music, clever, and driven, she will be someone of great acknowledgment, she’s going to make a difference and change the world. Uninfluenced from others and always thinking with a clear mind she is the best at giving advice. She is there to stand up for herself and others. Her kind ways are sometimes taken advantage of but she learns from her past and is heading to a bright tomorrow. If you meet her, you remember her, and think of her often. She is the pretty girl with the best personality. She is the girl that you stared at in class. The girl that once you met her you can’t help but liked her. The best secret keeper. She is the definition of a good person. Also answers to Mona.

Get the Raymone mug.A punk rock band that hailed in the 1970's and early 80's. The band members were the following:
-Joey Ramones (R.I.P. 2001)
-Johnny Ramone (R.I.P. 2004)
-Dee Dee Ramones (R.I.P. 2002.....you stupid bastard)
-Tommy Ramone
following members were:
-Marky Ramone
-CJ Ramone
-Elvis Ramone (wtf)
-Richie Ramone
The first Ramones album (self-titled) is one of the most famous punk albums ever made. This album contained their biggest hit, Blitzkrieg Bop, and changed the punk sound forever.
Though the Ramones were a very wonderful band, they tried to reach commercialism in the middle of their career, starting around the albums "End of the Century" and "Subterranean Jungle". They were not very successful and many fans were lost. The Ramones, however, were always great in their own way, even if all of them were borderline psychotic and drank too much.
The Ramones split in 1996 and went and did their own thing. Joey Ramone made a new album entitled "Don't Worry About Me" which contains his own version of "What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong.
Joey died of lymphatic cancer in 2001, Dee Dee died of a heroin overdose like an idiot in 2002, and Johnny died in 2004 of prostate cancer.
Though the main three members are gone, their music will always live on and influence following generations.
