20 Years Ago on AOL.com: July 26, 1999 -- Kennedy Curse Fully Broken with Personal Finance and Another Heat Wave

July 26, 1999: We started the first full workweek of the post-JFK-Jr.-era moving back to the predictable and prosaic Monday morning Personal Finance, with loan and stock tools and investing chat:

For the PM update, we went to another July heat wave:

Incidentally, I posted this using my phone; OMG, what a chore; not only were the Blogger and Flickr apps not up to the task, but using the full desktop sites on mobile, I kept accidentally refreshing the page when trying to scroll around, losing my changes.

[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.]
