I never really know where to start. I always think the U.S. is just a normal place to live with normal social values. That is true, in a sense, but there is much more than meets the eye. I am taking a class for my MBA based on the TV show “The Wire.” It’s a show about police and inner-city crime in Baltimore, Maryland. It’s often called the best show of all time. I have watched three seasons, and so far it is one of my favorites. If you want to know more about American culture you can watch this show!
