Site Author's new addition (with a nod to reject history)
I know this forum is not normally the place for personal announcements, but this does have tangential relevance to the history of F1 rejects.
I am pleased to announce the birth of my second child, a daughter named Andrea Law.
Although not deliberately named after Moda, Sassetti, de Cesaris, de Adamich etc, the link to F1 rejectdom is a happy coincidence.
P.S. For those of you who think that somehow I now have more time to work on this website, I presume you must never have had children before! Nevertheless, there is something in the works ...

How cute! She has Perry McCarthy's hairline.
Edit: Wow, I suck. I forgot to congratulate you, Enoch.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.

She already has more hair than Roberto Moreno had when racing. Congrats
I like the way Snrub thinks!
Re: Site Author's new addition (with a nod to reject history)
Congratulations! Andrea is a beautiful name, too (although with the BrawnGP and Ferrari shirts you're wearing in the pictures it appears that you're not trying very hard to pass on your love for all things rejectful to the next generation...)

Congrats for the second time (in this context) Enoch! I see we have the Senior Grand Prix Analyst with another Junior GP Analyst.

Congratulations indeed Enoch.

Why are you congratulating Jamie's family on the birth of Enoch's kid?
Unless you're implying that they're one in the same, which is probably hilariously untrue.
Re: Site Author's new addition (with a nod to reject history)
I also offer my congrats

Re: Site Author's new addition (with a nod to reject history)
Well, the fact that the name is Andrea shows that, even if the child is a daughter, you tried SO HARD to give him a reject-related name that you managed to come up with the only name that can be used both for male and female
don't deny it
By the way, she looks cute indeed, congratulations

Don't you guys think Enoch will be stressed enough with his baby without you putting in jokes about his spiritual life-partner?

Why do you always have to be so difficult? What are you doing with feelings on the internet?

Congratulations. By the way, forget about full nights sleeps for a few years. Even when they sleep through you'll always be listening out for them. But you can't beat it. Enjoy it!

Now that I think of it, "Law" in italian can be literally translated as "Legge"

Congratulations Enoch.
Are you implying Enoch should have named her Katherine? Or quite possibly the Italian variant of Katherine?

He was, however, when Christopher Walken had a fever, and the only prescription was more cowbell.

Disagree. He was on fire indeed (albeit imaginarily).
