Time to put on my feminist hat:
Danica Patrick has won the Indy Japan 300 [CORRECTED].
WOW! We may not get a female president this November, but there are plenty of other ways that women are breaking boundaries. First woman EVER to win tan Indy car race [CORRECTED].
Now, I may mock racing in general (How hard can it REALLY be to drive in a circle? It maybe boring, but hard?) I don't doubt that being a female in that world is tough with a capital T.
So all manner of applause and support for Ms. Patrick. Very impressive, indeedy. (Read full coverage at the NY Times.)

Yay, Danica! I'm not much of a racing fan either, but I have to give the girl props. And I suppose her success may lead to fewer Viagra sponsorships and more of, maybe, Kotex?? Now that's progress!
