Well...dunno if "crushed" is the word I would've used. Her fuel strategy
turned out to be the better choice. Danica did pass Helio two laps from
the end to take the lead. It's definitely a "real" win, and long overdue.
Hottie, indeed. And tough as nails.

OK, I'll settle for "beaten". :-)
I also spelled her name wrong, oops. I shouldn't have any trouble with
her last name.

Sure about that? Women, (and men), can each keep their birth name when
they marry, take the woman's name, or use both as in "Hospenthal-Patrick".
At least that was the rule in Texas 16 years ago.
I guess it makes things easier when the more likely than not divorce occurs.
In any case, her name is still referred to as "Patrick" in every media
report I have seen on her.
Much better than Hospenthal, imho. :-)

I think it's the same here in the USA. <GD&R>

Probably not in her husband's opinion...

I think in some/most states, they can pick any last name they
want. I've known of a few couples that have picked a last name
that's either a mixture of their two last names (more "mixed"
than just hyphenating them) or just a completely unrelated
name.

AFAIK, in any state you can use any name you want. IF the name you
chose becomes the name by which you are known by your friends, business
associates, etc. it becomes your legal name. You can use it to sign
contracts, checks, etc. You may ask a court to legally change your
name but the common law method is most often used.
IE: Leonard Sly became Roy Rogers, Marion Michael Morrison became John
Wayne, Leslie L. King, Jr. became Gerald R. Ford, etc.
The only exception is using a name for fraudulent purposes, then it
doesn't become your legal name

When I got married the first time, I changed my last name to my
husband's. When I got divorced, I had to pay to change it back. Then
I was single for 15 years. When I got married to my second husband,
I told him that if he wanted our last names to be the same, he should
change his.
We have different last names. <G>
And we've been together nearly 25 years now.

Good for you! I was discussing this with my wife the other day, decided my
opinion was "Each keep your own name, give the boys the dads name and the
girls the moms name".
They had onea them Texas guys on the news last night, he looked just like
Hank (King of the Hill) brought to life. Amusing.

In Austin, there are so many former Californians and college students
that it is not too bad.
Go out to almost any small Texas town, and you will run into a Hank Hill
in about 10 minutes, along with his friends..... :-)

And what happens to the next generation when two hyphenates
marry and have kids? And the generation after that? In a
couple hundred years, people will have 1000+ names hyphenated
together as a surname. Driver's licenses will be 25 meters
long.
