whidbey joke

An Alaskan, a Texan and a Whidbey Islander and comparing (among other things) the local weather.

Alaskan says to the Texan: "Doesn't it get really hot down there?"
Texan replies: "yeah, but it's a dry heat so we don't mind. doesn't it get really cold up there?"
Alaskan replies: "yeah, but it's a dry cold so we don't mind. What about whidbey island? doesn't it rain all the time?"
Texan: "yeah! doesn't it!?"
Whidbey Islander: "yeah, but it's a dry rain so we don't mind."
