"I wanna be your Joey Ramone."
                 --Sleater- Kinney

The Ramones may not have been as outrageous as the Sex Pistols or as smart as the Clash, but boy, they sure were fun! Filled with pinheads, cretins, and other assorted losers in need of medication, their version of the human condition wasn't pretty, or hopeful, or even cool. But that wasn't the point. Or rather, there was no point. Just two minutes, three chords, and attitude. Today punk rock, tomorrow the world.
