worlds fastest indian

Summer is officially in full swing and I have found myself ever drawn further and further away from my computer. Weddings (one last weekend, another this weekend) seem to be all the rage and I have 3 more to attend before September. There is also the usual stuff like barbeque's and concerts tugging at my attention.

I am a little sad to lose focus like this, but more so I think that I am sad because it doesn't bother me so much as it did say even a year ago. Hopefully it is just a phase and I can get back on track, but sadly everything I thought I knew about Autotools will now have to be re-learnt, and as was pointed out to me recently if it slipped away so easily, I probably hadn't grasped it very well in the first place.

Tonight I watched a movie called World's Fastest Indian which is about a motorcycle builder named Burt Munro who set a bunch of land speed records on a really old motorcycle. I don't why I am such a sucker for feel good movies but several times in this movie tears rolled down my cheeks. Anthony Hopkins played his role with superb charm, definitely check out this movie, even if you don't like motorcycles. (which I generally don't)
