A man is walking down a country road and witnesses a murder but does not call the police. Why?

Night and day.
There are 20 people in an empty, square room. Each person has full sight of the entire room and everyone in it without turning his head or body, or moving in any way (other than the eyes). Where can you place an apple so that all but one person can see it?

On a person's head.
As I was going to St. Ives, I met a man with seven wives.
Each wife had seven sacks; each sack had seven cats; each cat had seven kits.
Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, how many were there going to St. Ives?

One of the three together. One of them will see two of the same color and know what color his is.

You are the driver of a bus that goes from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. At your first stop, 9 people get on the bus. Next stop, 5 people get on and 6 people get off. Next time, 13 people get on and 7 people get off. You stop at McDonald's and order a Big Mac with a chocolate shake. You reach the next stop and 15 people get off, with 6 people getting on.
What color are the bus driver's eyes?
Whatever colour your own eyes are; you are the driver after all.
Ancient one: What walks on four legs in the morning, two in the evening and three at night?

I come at early dawn,
longed for every day,
yet always thrown away... what am I?
