20 Years Ago on AOL.com: Mar. 8, 1999 -- Avoid Tax Mistakes; Joe DiMaggio Dies at 84

[Series note: In the late 1990s, I programmed the content for the AOL.com home page, which relaunched with a new design on July 14, 1998. I printed screencaps and saved them. 20 years later, I'm scanning them in and posting them with a little commentary under the tag #20YearsAgoOnAOLcom.]
