I'm from Chicago. You wanna know about Prohibition and Al Capone? I'm your gal. wink

Also, last year I wrote a huge paper on military dictatorship in Uganda, if that helps at all. huh My cousin-in-law is from Uganda as well.

Oh! And there's a professor at my university from Nigeria!

Also, I'm not sure exactly what kind of cultural things you're looking at, but I should also mention that I'm a sociology major and this past summer I took a class where we went down to Memphis, TN and the Mississippi Delta (the poorest part of the United States) to do a cultural study on poverty and the blues/gospel culture.

Thanks to Cat for my rockin' avatar!

(About Lois & Clark)
Perry: Son, you just hit the bulls eye. It's like we're supporting characters in some TV show and it's only about them.
Jimmy: Yeah! It's like all we do is advance their plots.
Perry: To tell you the truth, I'm sick of it.
Jimmy: Man, me too!
