Does

11. Pacific alignments

remain unsolved, or did I miss a post? The solution is not at all obscure.

Yes, I think 11 is still unsolved. I spent a little time on it but haven't come up with much. Can't think of too many synonyms for Pacific with a capital P, but I'm probably being too literal. I did at least learn that Stockton, CA, has an auto repair shop called Pacific Alignment. :D

I played with 11 for a bit, but just couldn't figure out too many options that either word led to. :?

sticking a fork in my one unsolved one. The clue was to lead you to

"Cora lien" which then gave you the name of an actress who heard the most famous (infamous?) line ever delivered in the history of America Theatre.
I think that one and Rex's are the only "live" ones.

Whoa. As Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon always say, "Your puzzles are harder than you think they are." :)

Although I'm sure if I give you a few good clues, some maverick will choose to accept my challenge and definitely find the answer.
