HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!
> It was a Dark and Stormy Night..
> Halloween is on the way...
> Bob Hill and his new wife Betty were vacationing in Europe... as it
> happens, near Transylvania . They were driving in a rental car
> along a rather deserted highway. It was late and raining very
> hard. Bob could barely see the road in front of the car. Suddenly
> the car skids out of control! Bob attempts to control the car, but to
> no avail! The car swerves and smashes into a tree.
> Moments later, Bob shakes his head to clear the fog. Dazed, he
> looks over at the passenger seat and sees his wife unconscious, with
> her head bleeding! Despite the rain and unfamiliar countryside, Bob
> knows he has to get her medical assistance.
> Bob carefully picks his wife up and begins trudging down the road.
> After a short while, he sees a light. He heads towards the light,
> which is coming from a large, old house. He approaches the door and
> knocks.
> A minute passes. A small, hunched man opens the door. Bob
> immediately blurts, "Hello, my name is Bob Hill, and this is my wife
> Betty. We've been in a terrible accident, and my wife has been
> seriously hurt. Can I please use your phone?"
> "I'm sorry," replied the hunchback, "but we don't have a phone. My
> master is a doctor; come in and I will get him!"
> Bob brings his wife in.
> An older man comes down the stairs. "I'm afraid my assistant may
> have misled you. I am not a medical doctor; I am a scientist.
> However, it is many miles to the nearest clinic, and I have had a
> basic medical training. I will see what I can do. Igor, bring them
> down to the laboratory."
>
>
> With that, Igor picks up Betty and carries her downstairs, with Bob
> following closely. Igor places Betty on a table in the lab. Bob
> collapses from exhaustion and his own injuries, so Igor places Bob on
> an adjoining table.
>
>
> After a brief examination, Igor's master looks worried. "Things are
> serious, Igor. Prepare a transfusion." Igor and his master work
> feverishly, but to no avail. Bob and Betty Hill are no more.
>
> The Hills' deaths upset Igor's master greatly. Wearily, he climbs
> the steps to his conservatory, which houses his grand piano. For it
> is here that he has always found solace. He begins to play, and a
> stirring, almost haunting melody fills the house.
>
>
> Meanwhile, Igor is still in the lab tidying up. His eyes catch
> movement, and he notices the fingers on Betty's hand twitch, keeping
> time to the haunting piano music. Stunned, he watches as Bob's arm
> begins to rise, marking the beat! He is further amazed as Betty and
> Bob both sit up straight!
>
>
> Unable to contain himself, he dashes up the stairs to the conservatory.
>
> He bursts in and shouts to his master:
> "Master, Master! ..... The Hills are alive with the sound of music!"
>
> (I am soooooo sorry...... But you really should've seen that one
> coming)

In fact, I laughed out loud, by myself at the computor. O well, the internet is only 40 years old. I hate to think what I would be doing down the line.

I laughed so hard that my son made me read him the whole joke. Unfortunately he didn't get it .

That has to be one of longest lead-ups to a pun that I've ever seen but was the ending ever worth it.
