Just wait a while and a bottle should come to your shore.

It won't be your original message though, it could be from anyone!

Best one yet:

An ugly man walks into his local pub with a big grin on his face. "What are you so happy about?" asks the barman. "Well, I'll tell you," replies the ugly man. "You know, I live alone by the railway. Well, on my way home last night, I noticed a young woman tied to the tracks, like in the films. I, of course, went and cut her free and took her back to my place. Anyway, to make a long story short, I scored big time! We made love all night, in the bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, all over the house. We did everything, me on top, sometimes her on top, like doggies, every position imaginable!" Fantastic!" exclaimed the barman. "You lucky b***ard. Was she pretty?" .......... "Dunno... never found the head!

Ooo my first message:

Once upon a time there was a man in a tuxedo. He woke up in a forest, not knowing who he was or where he came from. Brushing off his clothes, he made his way to the nearest town. No one seemed to recognize him, except for a little girl. She ran up to him and exclaimed, "...
---
Daddy, why are you still wearing your tux. and where is Mommy. TO this the man replied...
---
??
---
Where are your grandparents, who has been watching you? Take me to them.
---
I left her in the forest to hear what sound a tree makes when it falls.
---
Jeeves... where is my banana split?
---
and the girl laughed because she saw the tree fall but did not hear it.
---
but then she thought, " DO I make a sound when I laugh?"
---
or did the tree really fall?
