She was amazing; she'll be missed terribly.

I often tell a dumb story about a trip I took with my ex to San Francisco. We had a terrible time finding a place to park before we went down to the wharf to visit and see the sights. So we parked on a meter and took off, and when we got back, we had a $25 ticket. We never paid it, and to this day I say I owe Dianne Feinstein $25.

I was watching the episode of Celebrity Jeopardy that aired last week and I was surprised when they had a clue that referred to the "late" Senator Dianne Feinstein, then asked what state she represented. That episode aired on October 11, and Feinstein died on September 29. I'm used to game shows having a much longer lead time, and I was surprised that they taped and edited the show and got it on the air in less than 12 days. (I'm guessing they already had prepared the clue and just rewrote it to add the word "late" and changed "represents" to "represented.")
