In her nine years on CNBC, anchor and Squawk Box regular Maria Bartiromo has gotten under many investors' white collars. One unlikely fan of the 34-year-old ''Money Honey'': punk-rocker Joey Ramone, who died of lymphatic cancer last April at 49. His final album, Don't Worry About Me, due Feb. 19, even includes a track titled ''Maria Bartiromo.'' While singing about his portfolio of tech stocks like Yahoo! and Amazon.com, Ramone rhapsodizes: ''I watch you on the TV every single day/Those eyes make everything okay.'' A flattered Bartiromo recalls exchanging e-mails with Ramone before his death: ''He was a true gentleman...[and] very intelligent about the market.'' Sounds like Ramone should have renamed one of his classics: ''Gimme Gimme Stock Treatment!''
