[h=1]Why do we day dream?[/h]
A day dream is a visual fantasy experienced by us, while we are wide awake. Usually it is based on pleasant and happy thoughts, hopes and ambitions, plans for the future or memories of the past. A series of thoughts transport us from the present to a day dream. We sit staring into a distance with blank eyes while the mind is absorbed in the day dream.

Surveys have proved that even ordinary men and women (who are down to earth and practical) spend a large part of their waking hours in some sort of a fantasy, revere or day dream. They spend 11% or more of their waking hours in day dreaming.

Even persons who are engaged in important tasks, which demand all their attention, are found to indulge in day dreams. These are the moments they stop paying attention to what they do and enter an inner theatre of imagination, for the fulfillment of a wish. The work may go on mechanically due to constant practice but the mind is else where.

Sustained fantasies are clearer than dream since we are wide awake. They are longer, more coherent, more colourful and more accurate. All fantasies seem to have a healing and creative power. It may be a way of coping with our deep seated fears and anxieties.

Day dreaming might be considered by some skeptics as a waste of time or as a past time of the lazy people. But creative people such as novelists, film makers and composers get brilliant ideas when they day dream.

Research scientists, mathematicians, and physicists develop new concepts and find new solutions to old problems when they day dream. When a person day dreams, his normal inhibitions are by-passed.

For hard core criminals, this provides a mental theatre to plan and rehearse a crime, before they actually commit it. The evidences lay in the horror filled biographies of the infamous serial killers. They claim to have had frequently recurring violent fantasies-before actually turning to murder.

Day dreaming is a rare boon indeed! We should know how to make the best of that boon for creation and not for destruction.

[h=1]Jame Gumb[/h]
Jame Gumb-also called as The Buffalo Bill-was the main antagonist in the 1988 novel Silence of the Lambs, by Thomas Harris.

Gumb murders over weight women so that he make a “woman’s suit” from their skins! Gumb considers himself to be a transsexual but he is too disturbed to qualify for the sex reassignment surgery.

Gumb is abandoned by his alcoholic prostitute mother and lives in foster homes from the age of two years till he is adopted by his grand parents at the age of ten. He kills his grand parents just for the thrill of the kill, when he is just 12!

Later his modus operandi becomes this; to approach women pretending to be injured and ask for their help in loading something heavy in his van. He then gives a surprise attack from behind knocking them off.

He holds his victims prisoners and starves them until their skin becomes loose enough to come off easily. He strangles his first three victims and shoots the fourth.

He skins his fourth victim, places a Death’s head moth on her throat and dumps her body. He is fascinated by the moth’s metamorphosis- a process he wants to undergo by becoming a woman!

He thinks of his victims as “Things” and not as real people. Harris based Gumb on not just one but five real life serial killers.

1.Jerry Brudos, who would dress up in his victims’ clothing and keep their shoes.

2.Ed Gein, who fashioned trophies and keepsakes from the bones and skins of his victims.

3.Ted Bundy, who would wear an arm brace, pretend to be injured and seek the help of his victims.

4.Gary M Heidnik, who kidnapped six women and held them as prisoners and slaves.

5.Edmund Kemper, who like Gumb killed his grand parents “just to see what it felt like”

So five hideous monsters in human form have been rolled into one,to create the unforgettable and unforgivable Jame Gumb!

It will keep on scratching it till it becomes an major health issues and kills the monkey.
