Dry and droll

Years ago, while leafing through Reader's Digest, I had come across this joke. A man who was going through the diary of his grandfather had sent Reader's Digest an entry on some date long ago -

"Raining heavily.
Day gloomy.
Drank 2 pegs of Scotch whiskey.
Day still gloomy."

I had found it so funny that I remember it well even after so many years. My afternoon is also passing somewhat like that.

"Very hot, humid and dull.
Day gloomy.
Drank water from one coconut.
Day still gloomy."
