following yesterday’s listings of different organization’s definitions of terrorism, here is the FBI’s (pulled off of terrorism.com):
Terrorism is the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.
and in other news, it is strange not to be wearing the sonoma ring. everytime i go to spin it or to wash my hands, i can tell something is missing.
i’ve pulled out an old audio tape i picked up of colin wilson lecturing. very good stuff. he talks about how to deal with the robot that so frequently takes over our lives and drains our vital batteries. he gives a few examples and methods of getting the upper hand through concentration and attention. i know that probably makes little or no sense by itself, so i strongly recommend picking up a few of his books and reading them. some are better than others, but i don’t think i’ve read any that didn’t deal with the main thesis of overcoming and trancending our seemingly limited and trivial lives.
my problem is that i can’t seem to find the second tape…
