Oh yeah, other good ones: the job is funded, but only in the next fiscal year -- which isn't here yet.
Or, the company is about to be acquired (or get venture capital funding), and they want to keep their headcount low until _after_ the deal is inked, because the higher the revenue per employee (total revenue divided by # or employees), the better they look and the better price they may get. Happened to me once: I waited three months.
