Thanks! ***************************************************************** S.O.T.W Last weeks Shim of the week was GD86Jaded@aol.com. This weeks winner is IcyMochacs@aol.com (Carrie) Here are Carrie's answers... ---------------- 1.Who is your favorite member, and why? I luv Tre 'cuz he plays drums well. I know that sounds eally corny, but he really does rock! My boyfriend, Tre (his name was Doug) actually went to a Justice of the Peace and had his name changed to TRE! We both love the way he plays- all funky with improv- and Tre plays just like the real one...anyway...um...that's basically why...and also if Tre Cool ever has a drum solo, that's OUR SONG. hehe... also, I named my cat Tre, so it rox! 2.What is your favorite album? Dookie. Definitely Dookie. Every second of every song on that album is the best EVER. I wake up to Dookie, go to sleep with Dookie. Basically, I eat, sleep and breathe dookie.!!!!! 3.Favorite song? Hm.... that's a hard one....Longview. The way Tre rocks out in that song just totally makes me wanna get up and dance!!!!!!!!
