I'm a big fan of the Ominous Silence trick (#7). It's especially fun to use when on the phone, as you can be doing just about anything (reading the newspaper, eating a bagel) while the other party imagines you glaring into the phone, and stammers into the stony silence. It usually ends in them caving and me triumphantly (but silently) pumping my fist into the air.
