Site Author's new addition (with a nod to reject history)

eytl · Post by **eytl** » 15 Feb 2010, 05:53

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 ...

Congrats, she looks lovely.

thehemogoblin · Post by **thehemogoblin** » 15 Feb 2010, 07:53

How cute! She has Perry McCarthy's hairline.

Edit: Wow, I suck. I forgot to congratulate you, Enoch.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

(You get it twice, because I forgot it the first time.)

She already has more hair than Roberto Moreno had when racing. Congrats :mrgreen:

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.

The next Australian F1 world champion and indeed first female F1 world champion?

Congratulations to Jamie and his family - this is fantastic news. I wish Andrea a long, happy and fulfilling life

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.

Collieafc · Post by **Collieafc** » 15 Feb 2010, 12:48

I also offer my congrats

Probably being the key word.

Anyway, yes, congrats and all that.

Andrea - it can't have been a complete coincidence.

LucaPacchiarini · Post by **LucaPacchiarini** » 15 Feb 2010, 14:07

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 :mrgreen:

don't deny it :lol:

By the way, she looks cute indeed, congratulations

Note to self: don't post stuff on an empty stomach. :oops:

I'll try again:

Hopefully I typed what I intended to type this time...

Jamie is a girl's name sometimes.

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?

Aim for a son this time. Heinz-Harald is a lovely name.

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!

As a recent father (1 month old daughter), I congratulate you for the birth of Andrea Law.
I tried to name my daughter with a racing name, but was vetoed! :shock:

Surely the lovely child is the important one here?

Agreed. Time for papayas with righteous fury?

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

see, it's another racing connection :mrgreen:

Congratulations Enoch. :mrgreen:

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

Enoch's spiritual life partner couldn't be Jamie or he wouldn't have received the extended DVD of Talladega Nights for Christmas...

Maybe Talladega Nights wasn't a masterpiece but I liked the film nonetheless. It was funny

Will Ferrell was not on fire.

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

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