Happy Birthday Dr Joyce Brothers

Sending out best wishes for a happy birthday to Dr Joyce Brothers Saturday, October 20 (though here her birthday is given as October 29, while in other places it's given as September 20).  Columnist, author, business consultant, wife, and mother, not to mention being America's best known psychologist, Dr Brothers has enjoyed a successful career that has spanned over half a century in the media spotlight.  The following video, compiled by the good doctor's friends and family, is a compilation of many of the highlights of her career.






So, while I'm sure that you all join me in wishing Dr Brothers all the best today, I'm also sure that you're wondering, "What does all this have to do with a blog about horse racing?"  Well, I'll tell you: It's because the following quote, attributed to Dr Brothers, is one that every horse player in the world should have memorized and committed to heart.  Post it on your computer; write it on your Daily Racing Form; tape it to your refrigerator door; chisel it into stone and put it on your desk; do whatever you have to do to make the following a part of your handicapping process:

"Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level." - Dr Joyce Brothers

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
