Riddle thread time
I'm not sure if this is a well known riddle or not, but here it goes: the man who made it doesn't want it, the man who bought it doesn't need it, the man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it?
Time?
You 'make time' (waste time) when you don't want the time you are trying to get to pass quicker.
You 'buy time', though I haven't yet figured out why the man doesn't need it.
The man who needs time (because he is about to die) doesn't know his time is up.
What's in my pocket?
"String, or nothing!"

I cheated so I won't answer, but "time" is not it.

I've heard this one somewhere, a long time ago, but I can't seem to recall what the solution was. I'll mull it over for a bit.
EDIT: got it, I think...
[spoiler]A coffin?
People who make coffins obviously don't need it for themselves, and unless you're a weirdo and/or a vampire you usually don't buy your own coffin, and finally, if you need a coffin you're probably dead so you don't know what your coffin looks like.[/spoiler]

What can run but never walks,
Has a mouth but never talks,
Has a bed but never sleeps,
Has a head but never weeps?
