Nope. It’s

A very old, very dumb joke. No offense. 
Meditate on it :).
Oh, okay. But it’s in spoilers, because reading teh solution removes the zenlike quality.

Lord Cholmondeley (CHUM-ley) had left the pressures of the peerage far behind when he retired to his villa in Tuscany. But the regularity of his habits was so ingrained in his being that he found himself arriving at the same café at the same time, every day, and ordering the same drink. The townspeople, a leisurely lot unaccustomed to clockwatching, found the habit extremely amusing, and began setting their watches by this daily event.
One day, however, after more than a year of unvarying routine, and much to everyone’s amazement, Lord Cholmondeley failed to arrive as per usual. Ten minutes passed. Then thirty. When an hour and come and gone and there was still no sign of their regular visitor, some began to express concern. Just at the point when a party of villagers had been deputized to seek out the missing gentleman, Lord Cholmondeley’s butler arrived at the café.
“My Lord wishes me to inform you,” he said, “that he had the great fortune of encountering a young lady whilst en route to his accustomed engagement. He has further asked me to state that, if he is able, he shall be here in half an hour. If he is not able, he will be here in five minutes.”
groans LHoD, that was simply awful.
Also Isaac Asimov’s favorite, and a very rare triple pun, at that.
Probably.
But plenty of people pronounce it “disassder” The difference between “d” and “t” is often neglected.
Wow an American who understands this joke, or are you a dissplaced Brit, Aussie or other civilised national.
I don’t get it! 
What we call Aspirin, they call paracetamol. (“parrots eat 'em all”)
No, what we call paracetamol, you guys call acetaminophen …
Which I guess is an aspirin replacement. Certainly paracetamol seems to be in the bulk of OTC painkillers here in Australia, where when I lived in the US, aspirin was the major OTC painkiller. I’m not even sure you can buy aspirin outside a chemist (drug store) here - I’ve only ever seen paracetamol at the grocery store.
