20 Years Ago on AOL.com: July 14, 1999 -- Fly to France; Hollywood News and Photos

July 14, 1999: We did reference Bastille Day, though only as part of a "Fly to France" travel package promotion, anchored by a pic of the Arc de Triomphe. (This was also the 1-year anniversary of the redesigned AOL.com, though we didn't mention that at all.)

For the PM update, we went with a pretty tame Hollywood news feature, with presumably an Entertainment feature and photo gallery (we led with a pic of Mike Myers and I think his then-wife?):

[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.]
