Osler's Razor

As we move into that part of practice court where throwing oneself into a vat of Starbucks' backwash seems preferable to another 5-hour minitrial session, I did see a wonderful tragedy today.

Two PC students were faced with the job of defending a workout guru/personal trainer so devoted to physical fitness that his own home featured multiple treadmills, and so popular with the ladies that they were killing one another for his affections. Who did said PC students find to play this super-buff stud? Poseur, pictured here in the midst of yet another workout.

It was a brilliant bit of casting, as he hobbled up to the stand to tell the jury how he wasn't aware that the desire for his hot bod' had driven one of his paramours to kill another. I was hoping he would describe his astounding fitness schedule, but there wasn't time.

The truth is, Poseur is a pretty good athlete, but this was quite a reputation to hold up.

In the end, the jury walked out for seven or eight seconds before returning to convict him of first-degree murder; I'm not even sure the door had closed all the way.
