If you were watching Fox News last night following the Republican National Convention, you would have seen controversial reporter Gerald Rivera reporting live from St. Croix. You probably remember him from 20/20 or his talk show Geraldo that made Rednecks fighting on television popular long before Jerry Springer ever did. He was at the Henry Rohlsen Airport with the Air Force's Hurricane Hunters speaking to them about Hurricane Frances. The Hurricane Hunters are those crazy people that fly into the eye of the storm to broadcast its strength and direction to meteorologists. They move their base of operations to St. Croix every year during the hurricane season so that they can be near the action.

I Love the 90s
If you have not seen the VH1 series, I Love The 90s, you have got to check it out. It is hilarious. It airs all this week on VH1 at 9:00 PM. It is not as enjoyable as I Love the 80s was earlier this year but it still has its moments. It is fun to reminisce about when Kris Kross first came out with Jump. Or Canadian dancehall reggae artist Snow had Informer playing on all the radio stations. I really didn't know he was that popular in the states too. Then there were the movies like Boyz in the Hood, the original ghetto-life gangsta flick. And New Jack City with Chris Rock playing the crack head to perfection. Don't forget about when In Living Color and Martin came out, before they got stale a few years later. That was before any of us knew that Fly Girl J-Lo was going to blow up like she did. Back then she was just the dancer that took us to commercial break. I remember Alan Woods at Central petitioning St. Croix Cable TV to get a Fox station so that he could watch In Living Color. You have got to admire that man's vision and leadership. Anyway, check out I Love the 90s for a few nostalgic laughs. Or you can simply reminisce on when VH1 actually used to play music videos along with MTV.
