“A Brilliant Conspiracy” Episode 24
Xenagogue peculiarities impel Jamila to make vegetative observations, forcing yard audits.
Displaying no qualms, Zollie unloads everything, blatantly claiming lethal kyphosis weakens him. Guilty sentence reduced.
Glossary:
Kyphosis hunchbacked condition
Xenagogue guide; someone who conducts strangers
Archibald’s ‘Horse of the Day’

Xanthi FC sounds Greek. Agreed, my mind is on another sport and the “X” means ‘a draw’ on a soccer betting coupon. However, there is a US racehorse called Xanadu.
Jamila’s ‘Daily Poison’

Xylitol is a sugar alcohol used as a sweetener. It is naturally found in low concentrations in the fibers of many fruits and vegetables.
Xylitol has no known toxicity in humans, but is often fatal to dogs.
Whereas Xanax (alprazolam) can be addictive to humans and potentiate other benzodiazepine drugs.

Nice show for X – such a hard letter :). I dislike sweeteners a lot – most of them taste horrid to me. Can’t drink any diet sodas – yuck!

X is always difficult…every year. Remember struggling with it last year and resorting to X-Mark – https://rolandclarke.com/2015/04/28/x-is-for-x-mark-signature-and-literacy/ . But it’s an interesting challenge. This time I found lots of obscure X words but only a few fitted in with the ongoing daily episode, each one requiring an X word. Hence, Xander and his acquaintances Yoshi and Zollie.

I love that xenagogue means guide, thanks Roland .. and that it’s extended to strangers.

I’m presuming that all these word meanings are correct, of course. I tried to double-check them all with more than one source/xenagogue.

Hey, I tried to leave a comment before, but I don’t see it. I just wanted to thank you for visiting my blog and teaching me a new word: xenagogue.
I can always taste when something has sugar alcohol in it. I much prefer the plain old sugar in my candy. 🙂
