Alexandrian

1 Besides, it’s been the Alexandrians, not the Saviors, who have been executing unarmed people left and right over the past couple weeks.

2 Hair-raising accounts of a similar sea monster were recorded by Alexandrian scribes as early as the second century A.D.; these accounts spread through Europe and Asia in Arabic, Coptic, Latin and Old English translations.

3 In modern Alexandria few people have a keen appreciation, much less a detailed knowledge, of the Alexandrian Library or of the great Egyptian civilization that preceded it for thousands of years.

4 Fearing for their independence, the Alexandrians launched a revolt against the pharaoh.

5 Early in Sunday’s episode of “The Walking Dead” an unknown Alexandrian — if he had a name, I didn’t catch it — set a record for quickest suicide-by-kvetch.

6 Left without a commander, the Alexandrians asked Caesar to send Ptolemy to lead them.

7 But I’m not sure Team Rick and the Alexandrians won’t be united in opposition to some other mutual foe, and I don’t mean walkers.

8 In the early third century Herophilus of Chalcedon, the brilliant Alexandrian anatomist, invented a device for timing the pulse.

9 But he has nothing on the Alexandrians in that regard.

10 The rest of this week’s installment — which wasn’t my favorite, just to put that out there — tracked the Alexandrians’ sputtering efforts to finally accept how the world is “now,” which was the episode’s title.

11 Not only have the Alexandrians killed his friends, Eugene has made the conflict irreparably personal, as it were.

12 After several weeks in which the Alexandrians tried to organize an alliance to battle the Savior Axis of Evil and Bad Mustaches, “The Walking Dead” spent Sunday with the Kingdom, the most significant holdout.

13 The rest of the episode is a process of self-actualization for the Alexandrians.

14 Six candidates for the magical Alexandrian Society compete to become one of five initiates.

15 Rick says he shot because he “doesn’t take chances anymore” – a lesson learned after the many times Alexandrians haven’t killed their foes and then paid consequences for their mercy.

16 The Old Testament comes down to us mainly from the Greek translations made in the Alexandrian Library.

17 I had forgotten about Brookside’s stand of Alexandrian or poet’s laurel, which is an attractive, evergreen ground cover much in need of wider use.

18 The two writers, both born in the ancient port city, form an unofficial Alexandrian compendium.

19 If I had to guess I’d bet a few of the Alexandrians snuff it, and possibly the loathsome priest, Gabriel.

20 Will any of the Alexandrians join the main group?
