Adam slept like a log (a silent log) until the plumber woke us up.
But I do have a special treat today: audio! Take a look at the left panel. It's not very graceful implementation, and I'm still working out the kinks, so I apologize if it acts up for anyone.
If you want to watch us on TV, check out the "STM in the Media" section in the left panel.
We also just added "Our Favorite Things Online." This is not a place for exchanging links, it is a brief list of our actual favorite things online.
Wow - thanks for the audio clips. My hubby does similar mutterings in the night although definitely not as frequent!
ReplyDeleteOnce he said...
Eat crocodile, eat crocodile. They eat chips.. cheddar too.
Think I sleep too heavily now and miss all his chunterings.
The duck one is very funny. I wonder what is going through his head when he says this?
ReplyDeleteThe audio clips don't work in Firefox unless you look at the page source and pull the direct link out.
ReplyDeleteFirefox has a 35% market share on Windows and almost 100% share on Linux.
Any chance you could find a way that doesn't exclude those of us who refuse to use Microdoft products?
I watched the NBC Today Show clip which was posted on Yahoo News. Afterwards I spent an hour reading through the entire blog. I haven't laughed quite that much in a long time. Thanks and happy dreams!!
ReplyDeleteHmmm.... they are working for me in Firefox on Mac. Can anyone else comment on their experience trying to hear these in Firefox? -Karen
ReplyDeleteSounds started to play all of a sudden and all of them at the same time, I didn't even click anywhere, which is pretty annoying. Does anyone other have the same issue? Also, I have these bars on the left side that don't seem to be doing anything. I'm using Chrome.
ReplyDeleteWorking for me in Firefox..
ReplyDeleteFirefox 3.6 on Windows XP:
ReplyDeletehttp://img641.imageshack.us/img641/9906/audio.png
they work on firefox for me ... firefox 3.6 windows 7
ReplyDeleteToo Funny!!!
More Audio for sure!!!
They are all fine for me in Firefox too (FF 3.5.7 in Win XP), and are absolutely brilliant! Thank you for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteThey don't work for me using Firefox 3.5.7 on my Mac.
ReplyDeleteThey work fine for me with Firefox 3.5.7/Win XP.
ReplyDeleteWorking in Firefox 3.6 linux. Love the badger one!
ReplyDeleteDamn, they don't work on opera mobile :(
ReplyDeleteMac SnowLeopard + Safari = OK
ReplyDeleteI've had no probs at all listening to the audio on Firefox. Great to hear his voice! I'm loving this blog.
ReplyDeleteWorks ok for me and I have Firefox. And now I'm laughing all over again, the audio gives an added edge of sheer unadulterated silliness! Thank you both so much! xxx
ReplyDeleteFantastic, love it, love the audio! More, more please! :D
ReplyDeleteeveryone who can't listen is just having plug-in issues; it has nothing to do with what web browser you are using.
ReplyDeleteSounds works for me in Firefox under Linux, just need to make sure you install the correct plugin when prompted.
ReplyDeleteFirefox also working here :)
ReplyDeleteKeep them coming!
Audio works fine in Firefox 3.5, a great addition to the site :)
ReplyDeleteFirefox 3.6, Win 7 - and no sound for me! :-(
ReplyDeleteI grabbed the links from the source, and they work fine so here are direct links for Don't Leave the Duck, Kittens, Potato Bags, Badger Tickling and Pirate.
Oh how I GIGGLED. That was amazing. I'm so glad you're putting the audio up!!!!
ReplyDeletePlease, could you have the audio in MP3 or WMA.. I just hate the QT plug-in, & QT itself. Bloatware... yeah I know I'm wining.. I don't like it too.. But I'd love to hear the audio.. if anyone could please post the audio somewhere else in MP3/WMA/any other format that does not require the QT plug-in, I'd be grateful... All those who have FF & W7 but no voice, it is the W7 Plug-in..
ReplyDeleteTo the anonymous person who says it's not working on Firefox, I only use Firefox and it works fine on mine. Maybe it's your windows vista that is the problem?
ReplyDeleteLove the audio, especially the potato bags one, Adam sounds so plaintive!
Hurray! Audio! It makes it even better. Thanks for the time and energy to put this out. Can't wait to hear the rest.
ReplyDeleteamazing!
ReplyDeletethis makes me SOOOOO happy!
Absolutely brilliant! I love this blog! So, so funny!
ReplyDeleteD'awww. He sounded so sad when he said the bit about the potato bags. Thanks for the audio!
ReplyDeleteGod, I love it when he's talking about the pirate rules! Absolutely fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAudio work for me on Firefox, no problem. I saw the Today spot. You guys make a very cute couple.
ReplyDeleteTears left mye eys listening to the audio.. It's very very funny.. Thanks for making us laugh.. Buttcheeks ahoy!!
ReplyDeleteButtcheeks ahoy?! Sounds like he was having a dirty dream!
ReplyDeleteI love the audio clips - thanks!
ReplyDeletethe audio clips are HILARIOUS!!!!! the whole blog is hilarious!!! thanks a million for all the laughs. keep it up :)
ReplyDeletehahahaha I loooooove this blog!!! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd i love the audio idea, amazing! Hope you have a great weekend with lots and lots of talkin!
Potato bags!!! lmao
ReplyDeleteThat is freaking hilarious. He sounded so disgruntled about it, too.
heh
Oh my gosh! I am literally crying from laughing so hard! This is my new favorite website! Will have to pass it on to coworkers and friends! Too funny! Thanks for the laughs!
ReplyDeleteThis is so great that you added audio! Thank you so much for this website. I have been sick and kind of depressed lately and I have not laughed this hard in no telling how long . I will look forward to checking in every day now. The pirate one is my favorite so far. HILARIOUS!! Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteCan't see it here. Win 7 and just updated to FF 3.6
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tavdy. I can't click on it either. I use Internet Explorer with Windows 7..
ReplyDeleteTotally bloody brilliant! (although all quicktime files auto-played upon opening so one was hit with a barrage of sleepy hilarity!)
ReplyDeletethis has to be one of my new favourite sites.. haven't laughed that hard in a really long time!!
ReplyDeleteThe audio clips make it even more fun...I forwarded the site to all my facebook friends. Glad you made this site! In this world we are living in, anything that makes me laugh is worth more than gold! Good Job!
ReplyDeleteI love the potato bags hahaha. And he sounds so genuine when he says this stuff! Can't believe it's not scripted.
ReplyDeletePlease please somebody do an animated version with the original audio!!!
When you use Chrome all the sounds play together as soon as you load up the page. They are so damn funny though
ReplyDeleteTouché to the post about QT bloatware above. 31 megs to play what seems like direct mp3 links? Pretty please use something lighter.
ReplyDeleteOMG! The audio is AWESOME! You did a great job! And, you picked three of my favorite quotes! Yay!
ReplyDeleteSaw your story on the TODAY show yesterday in the US and laughed til I cried (sorry Adam). Thank you for creating this blog, but more importantly, thank you for not being afraid to laugh at yourselves. Without humor in our lives, the world is a much sadder place. Thank you for brightening things up. And thank you for adding audio. Hearing him say these things is the icing on the cake.
ReplyDeleteLMAO From Steinhatchee Florida. Warning, don't read this while your drinking your morning coffee! You might spew it all over your screen!
ReplyDeleteI can't get it to work in Chrome - but it does work in Explorer. In both though, the quicktime controls are just a black bar, I need to click around in it to find the 'play' button... Hilarious stuff though! Thank you! He would be a great punchline writer ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I LOVE the audio clips!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteits very lewis carrol , maybe thats him reincarnated. thanks for spreading laughter.
ReplyDeletethe audio is AWESOME!! thank you so much for including it!
ReplyDeleteI am on a Mac w/ Firefox and I can hear everything just fine!!!!!! What fun this continues to be!!!!
ReplyDeletei have to say that this is hilarious! i heard about him on the news the other day and i had to find this blog. it makes my day! i sleep talk sometimes but not to this extent. like this one time i slept over at my friend's house and she recorded me sleeping and all i was talking about was peacocks and buffalo. then they said after a long pause i shouted "SPINACH SAVES THE WORLD!" im so glad they recorded it. anyways i love this blog and find it histerical!
ReplyDeleteeveryone, i was really really nervous about having my voice played out on air, and funnily enough more so having it on the site. but thank you for your amazing comments. the popularity of the site is totally unexpected, but the response from people enjoying the humour and revelling in the hilarity of it really touches both karen and i.
ReplyDeletethank you all so very very much
adam
I found you guys from the ABC news video featured on yahoo. I cant even believe how hilarious it must be to hear your husband saying such crazy things! is he bossy like that in waking life?i love the pirate ones... my boat, my rules. HAHAH!You guys are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe links work fine. All except for the fact that they are in quicktime format. Why not try something a little more universal like .wav or .mp3
ReplyDeleteYeah, I ran across this blog awhile ago via the blogs of note. Then I saw a clip of you guys on Yahoo. I LOVE the, "you can't be a pirate unless you have a beard... MY boat, MY rules. I almost died when I read that and listed to online. Too freaking funny. Keep them coming... I wish my husband did cool tricks like that. ;)
ReplyDeleteI was shocked to find that it works in Opera in linux, though the bars appear black.
ReplyDeleteMy sister was quoting Adam on facebook....I had no idea what she was talking about and she gave me this link. I'm laughing so hard I'm crying and my abs feel like I've been doing crunches! :) I'm book marking you! :)
ReplyDeletewell... i use IE and cant access the audio :(
ReplyDelete... but thats ok... i heard it when y'all were on "This Morning"
... i read you guys every day now too :)
keep em comin Adam... you have brought so many people laughter... that alone must make you feel great!
Saw you guys on the Today show yesterday! I love your blog...it makes my day. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, that's all that can be said is, Wow. And I agree, putting the duck there is Totally irresponsible. If only it didn't have all the foul language... Maybe change the tv shows and movies he's allowed to watch, switch to PBS ;)
ReplyDeletebaaahhahahahahhahaa. hilarious. you should be a stand up comedian. just take some ambien right before the show and someone can wheel you on stage.
ReplyDeleteThe audio is a great addition.
ReplyDeleteOne possible fix that should improve things for people running any HTML 5 supporting browser is to use the <audio> element. It could be used similarly to the example used on the linked page, placing the current <embed> element as a replacement for the unsupported message text as a fall-back for non-supporting browsers.
Hope this helps.
My little sister talks in her sleep, a few of her memorable quotes...
ReplyDelete"Can we get the game where you blowup diapers?"
"Yay, Bobby and David got a Playstation 360!"
"Don't take the cookie jar!"
"That elephant was. . ."
There's more but I can't remember them.
Audio isn't working for me on Win7 / IE8.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your NBC clip, and am guilty of checking your page first thing in the morning as well. Thanks for the laughs!
Hahaha. Your husband is hilarious. I was just about to say you should have a Twitter, and then I found you on there.
ReplyDeleteOMG sooo funny! I thought I was the only one that did this...my family teases me...I see and say crazy things in light sleep... one time I woke up and said " there is a midget at the door!" and "Watch out for that cow!"....this is soooo funny. Glad to not be alone! ha ha ha
ReplyDeleteLOL! Precious! You'll have lots of fun at family gatherings in about 20 years!!!
ReplyDeleteNot wirking in Firefox 3.5.7 on my PC. I just opened IE and waited and waited for the damn thing to load. Sometimes you can't get away from it.
Love the Pirate...would love to hear Ninja!
Susan O, Chicago
Awe darn........ There isn't anything that allows me to click on so that I can listen. Just black bars. I'm not sure what to do. :(
ReplyDeletejust black bars for me also, firefox and chrome on windows 7
ReplyDeletebut anyway, i found my way to this site just last night.. and i honestly havent ever laughed out loud over anything until this. thanks so much for allowing us to peak in at this awesomeness
ROTFL!
ReplyDeleteWe and all of our boating friends just might need to have the pirate T-shirts....
I really like the audio; it makes it even funnier because of the delivery. He is so serious and sometimes even deadpan about it that it creates a hilarious contrast with the content of what he's saying. It's all in the delivery!
ReplyDeletethe audio postings are hysterical! thank you so much and keep it up!! :]
ReplyDeleteThanks so much... you keep us all laughing here in Ottawa, Canada.
ReplyDeleteI like the audio too. Even funnier.
ReplyDeleteAjax, Canada
Thanks for the audio! So so funny, Adam never fails to make me and my husband smile :)
ReplyDeleteOh my! The audio is priceless! LOVED the Duck!
ReplyDeleteMy friend sent me a link to you on... something that was on yahoo video, anyway went from there to here and haven't stopped laughing yet. I've listened to the kittens one about five times and I still find it hillarious. Theres something about the audio that just makes it great. I think its the british. Its one thing to read things but I find it so much funny when I hear it with the british accent. Maybe its just cause British comedy is always so much better than North American and it makes me think of things like Doctor Who and Hitchhikers guide, but I just love the audio. Its got the serious tone of listening to an audio book or something, but unless I was listening to Alice in Wonderland or something you'd never hear these phrases in an audio book. I love it. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteFirefox works fine for me. Love the website and following you on Facebook. Actually blogged about you too. My daughter volunteers at a shelter in the cat room and loves the kittens one. Hopefully I'll be able to get her a t-shirt soon. Wouldn't they be great to sell at shelters?
ReplyDeleteHaha, the audio is amazing! Love it. I'll be laughing twice as hard now.
ReplyDeleteI'm running quicktime plugin 7.6.4 in firefox 3.5.7, on a mac, for reference.
I LOVE the duck, badger and pirate audio clips!!! They had me giggling endlessly! :)
ReplyDeleteAdam at night is so much quieter and less quarrelsome than I heard in my head. He sounds very much like in real life Adam, only foul-mouthed and surreal. Definitely made it that much weirder and funnier.
ReplyDeleteRe: audio problems -- please give Karen and Adam a break, they are sharing their lives with us for our amusement, for which we are all thankful. The audio is an extra special gift. I'm sure you can sort out your plug-in issues without kvetching about it here.
I have windows internet explorer but the audio buttons just have X's on them and won't allow me to click...so they don't work for me. I'll be patient though because I've already heard some mutterings on the This Morning show and on the post from yahoo! I live in a circle of friends that love to quote movies and tv shows in common conversations as private jokes....and these are all EXCELLENT quotes and topics of conversation so THANK YOU!!! You're a brilliant wife for thinking to do this!
ReplyDeleteI just started blogging over Christmas break. 3 blizzards in a room and snowed in. Anyway, Your blog was the second one I started to follow, so when I saw you on ABC nightly news on Thursday I had to tell everyone that I follow your blog and how awesome that it has made so many people laugh and brighten their days. :-) ~Coreen
ReplyDeletemy blog: www.velvetoversteel.blogspot.com
I don't hear any movement of any kind in the audio clips. Or any heavy breathing. Or any kind of pre snoring. Or any neologisms. Or anything that indicates that he's actually asleep. I would like to hear more recordings.
ReplyDeleteCan we buy the audio for our phones? God I'd love the duck on the swing one as a ringtone! :)
ReplyDeleteKaren, Ask him his name when he is sleep talking-- I'd be curious to see what he says...and if he is the same "person" in every dream.
ReplyDeleteAUDIO YAYYY!!!
ReplyDeleteI hear them fine with firefox for mac, so no problem :D
ReplyDeleteEven though the audio clips are totally fake I still love this blog! :D
ReplyDeleteOn a Mac the adio works on Firefox Safari, but not Google Chrome
ReplyDeleteFirefox 3.6 on Vista, working fine, and my PC is usually pants for audio video.
ReplyDeleteBadgertastic is an official word now.
The audio clips are WONDERFUL, thanks so much! I love the duck one and the pirates one - I wish we knew what was going through his mind when he says this? I wonder if he even knows!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Karen for the audio! I love being able to hear the high pitched girly "too many whiskers!"
ReplyDeleteOh, this makes me laugh. Thanks for the fun!
ReplyDeleteI drank some tea while I listened to those audio clips and I almost choked. F'in brilliant!
ReplyDeleteToo bad with the audio, totally ruined the fun.
ReplyDeleteThe audio is hilarious as well! Thank you so much for uploading them! I await for more to come!!!
ReplyDeleteas much as I want to believe this is real, as it's kinda funny, really now... fake
ReplyDeleteThese are SSOO funny! I've been watching the posted quotes for a while, every morning I get up and see what Adam said the night before! :) Keep talking and posting guys, you rock! - Your #1 American Fan
