Bob Hill and his new wife Betty Hill were vacationing in Europe... as it happens, near Transylvania . They were driving in a rented 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 wfe Betty Hill. 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 Hill 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... Many thanks to Angela who sent this to me. Have a great day everyone!

ahoo To share a Malaysian joke herein :
One day a former top minister wanted to test out the newly acquired helicopter. He summoned the best known pilot from the airforce. Since, it happens that the son of the airforce was with him just after school, the pilot asks the minister whether it is possible to bring the young boy for a spin.
Why not, says the minister and off they flew with the boy. As it reaches the highest possible altitude, the helicopter develops some strange problems with its instrument. Fearing for the worse and that a lightly crash is imminent, the pilot immediately tells the minister to grab a parachute and jump. Jump he did with the bag strapped to his back.
Since, there were only two parachutes on board, the pilot lovingly tells his son to grab the other one and jump too. What about you, the son asked ? Don't worry son, tell mom that I love her and it is my duty to live and die for my country.
As the boy picks up the parachute, he shouted to his dad, daddy how come there is still another parachute here ? Oh goodness ! What did the minister took with him when he jumped ? The boy looked around and couldn't find his school bag. Sheepishly, he said, dad I think the minister took my school bag and jumped !
Then we are in deep shit son. I have accidentally cause an accident to our beloved minister. But dad, how could it be that he can't read Engrish ? It not your fault and it simply makes no sense to fault you for someone's inability to read and understand basic Engrish. You even offered him the parachute first and in term sacrifice yourself.
Moral of the story. Read and understand instructions before one takes the leap ! Ha ha ha. Have a blessed day !
