Pedestal desk - type of sock, verbal shrug, play for time; cube accessory 
Cripes! I’d just goten “pedestal” and was wroking out the last part. You suck.
Oh, and most of my last ones are still up for grabs.
Q.E.D., I thought all had been solved. What did I miss?
Here’s the answers to the ones I had which remain unsolved.
rough edge, waterfall = burr, lin: Berlin
lake, ancient coin, fee = sea, at, toll: Seattle
Quite so, peri. I’d missed a few of the answers. Anyway, here’s some more, fresh outta the old brain pan:
- long fish, sound of distaste, prank; british bastard, “to be” form
- elegant; piss, article, streetwalker slang
- nag (with on), just so, wood measure
- kind of laugh, presidential paramour
- transparent, tavern, basketball need
Harpsichord - nag (with on), just so, wood measure
Harmonica - kind of laugh, presidential paramour
Clarinet - transparent, tavern, basketball need
Grand Piano - elegant; piss, article, streetwalker slang
Six minutes to get three. You’re getting better at this, Dave. I can almost hear the cobwebs working out of the gears. 
B]Electric guitar** - long fish, sound of distaste, prank; british bastard, “to be” form
Electric guitar - long fish, sound of distaste, prank; british bastard, “to be” form
Somehow, I just knew that peri would be along to finish it off. He/she is a real puzzleholic.
Damn! Damn! Damn! I was SO close to winning one.
Those were more my speed. The only one I had trouble with was git. I never knew the definition of the word, before.
Yeah, but you got most of them, Dave so slice yerself off a big hunk o’
I find it quite amusing that no one has solved any of mine completely. Here’s a few hints.
“Tigerlily” is right-on. The artist on “Tigerlily” used to be part of 10,000 Maniacs, and reminds me of Sarah McLachlan and Tori Amos.
“Animosity” is right-on. The band is two words combined— a number spelled out, and “dust”. Look at it again, and you’ll realize which number.
It’s just “Play” for the album itself. The artist, however, is a techno DJ guy whose adopted name is the first word of a book about a crazy sea captain who wants revenge on the whale who bit off his leg. (I can’t believe I had to explain that.)
One of the bands listed is a very famous Irish band whose lead singer has but one name.
Perhaps my hints will stir some of you into solving them? 
I’ve been looking for a website with a page of these sorts of puzzles, but I’ve never found one. I can’t believe no one has done it yet.
I had to go back a few pages to find these ones from IThinkNot. I can’t believe I’ve done more to solve them than anyone else.

2. baby sheep, number after one; long corridor, second word of stupid kid’s show on Nickelodeon; opposite of me; metal container but used negatively; ? ; letter after A, first part of phrase meaning to realize what you should have done

3. First word of book by Herman Melville Hall; fun opposite of work.
I thought this was a different person than the author of Moby Dick. I’ve never seen him referred to as Hall. Call - Play
4. Number after 6, tiny particles of dirt; Raggedy’s last name, opposite of her, last word of our current missile campaign against Iraq, mass dwelling larger than a town.

Quite a while ago, Spider’s publisher set up a website (page?) for him, called Callahan’s CrossTime Saloon. I tried to check it out, but it was unbearably slow, so I gave up, and never went back. It may still be running. I suppose they’d be pissed if we co-opted the name.
There’s this town out in the wilds of the Great Plains, a small peaceful town where everyone is friendly, and strangers are always welcome. The one strange thing about this town is that eveyone who lives there owns a Grizzly, and the animals are allowed to roam around town freely. Now the bears are as gentle as the townsfolk, so everyone feels safe, but the bears can’t get to the other side of the street unless their owner walks with them. So, anytime a bear needs to do this, it will go get it’s owner, who drops what he’s doing to go help his bear. When I visited this town recently I saw all this, and I asked a gentleman why the did this, since it seemed so troublesome to have to go walk your bear across the street anytime it wanted to. He looked at me stoically, and said…

“Well, mister, we all have a bear to cross.”
