A thread was started yesterday about The Purim (urim) Story (ory).
I thought I would start one for all the other wonderful old story tapes from our childhood. To list a few:
- Marvelous Middos Machine
- When Zaidy Was Young
- The Talking Coins
- The Golden Crown
May 22, 2009 2:25 am at 2:25 am #1118288JaxMemberchofetzchaim: The Talking Coins-hey i totally forgot about that one! i used to listen to that one every second of the day! i couldn’t get enough of it! i liked the part where they went to court & proved it all!

May 22, 2009 2:43 am at 2:43 am #1118291postsemgirlMemberWhen my sisters used to get on my nerves I used to say The Golden Crown. I know the whole thing by heart! That would be enought to stop them. I love those tapes.

May 22, 2009 7:37 am at 7:37 am #1118299JaxMemberkapusta: me me, i do! wish i knew the rest of word though!
May 22, 2009 7:45 am at 7:45 am #1118300kapustaParticipant“…and if you’re riding with your friends and having lots of fun. Just remember the only rule and you’ll be number one. First of all, you should be watched…” sorry thats as far as I go… 🙁
May 22, 2009 9:53 am at 9:53 am #1118301Just SmileParticipantJax,
A few corrections.
Its
THE NAME AND number of your street, 250 west 60,
Where we are to be (they switched off here between the corner the corner and the lobby the corner) the number your calling from AND the reason we need to come.
🙂
May 22, 2009 3:30 pm at 3:30 pm #1118302JaxMemberJust Smile: it’s been a while! but i remember the tune still! that should count for something 😉
May 24, 2009 7:59 am at 7:59 am #1118303Just SmileParticipantOf course it counts.
Anyways, moving along.
How about Marvelous Middos Machine?
Name a song and I’ll pop out the lyrics. I grew up on MMM.
Uhhhh, don’t you have to put in the plug?
May 24, 2009 9:03 pm at 9:03 pm #1118304goody613Memberi loved when you bring your kids to the store ( all youll hear is we want more and more-so true!:0)
May 24, 2009 11:15 pm at 11:15 pm #1118305mepalMemberJS, shnoooooky?
May 25, 2009 3:13 am at 3:13 am #1118306JaxMemberames: the Marvelous Middos Machine was way before Potter days though!
May 25, 2009 3:17 am at 3:17 am #1118307kapustaParticipantThis is the evil in me. 😉 I’ll get this song in everyones head for the remainder, (almost nothing) of the day, with any luck it’ll stick until tomorrow.
Kol yisrael chaveirim,
we’re all in the same boat,
If someone drills a little hole, then none of us can float.
So whether you are from Tucson, or you come from Timbuktu,
We are still responsible, for every other Jew.
(start again) Kol yisrael chaveirim…
rats, it backfired…
anyone know where its from?
May 25, 2009 3:26 am at 3:26 am #1118308mazal77ParticipantWhen I was younger, many, many,….. years ago, the tape I listened to was Yanky and Shabbos. The Challah lady, Rev up your Engines. “Oh, when I grow up no matter what life brings, Hashem will give me the strength I need to handle it, and I will walk by the light of a thousand friday nights and the tefillos of my mother who, always had her candles lit.” Erev Shabbos, you may find me singing these songs. And lets not forget the 613 Torah Avenue cassettes/cd’s are all classics.
May 25, 2009 7:18 pm at 7:18 pm #1118309YW Moderator-42Moderatorkapusta, its “Areivim”, not “Chaveirim”.
No wonder Areivimzehlazeh left, how insulting!
And I believe it’s from Where’s Zaidy?
May 25, 2009 8:09 pm at 8:09 pm #1118310Just SmileParticipantgoody613 –
As promised
I met my good friend Mr. Katz yesterday,
He looked all upset, so I started to say
Things can’t be so bad, why are you so sad,
You better tell me right away
I’d be just as happy as I was before,
If only I listened and trusted you more
I ignored your advice, now I’m, paying the price
I went with all of my kids TO A STORE!
You went to a store with your girls and your boys?
And it was a big store, a store filled with toys,
But I warned you not, I know I forgot,
Oy it was a day that I did not enjoy
I know just what happened don’t tell me a thing
I know cause I took my kids the last spring
When they got to the store and walked through the door
All of your kinderlach started to SING
We want Lego and Construx
And a hockey set deluxe
We want baseballs we want bats
We want helmets we want hats
Like I said to you before, never take kids to a store,
All your gonna hear is, we want more and more
Tatty there’s a pretty doll with shiny golden hair,
I’m sorry little shayfela am I a Millionaire?
You already have that train, I know it works just fine,
But look it’s such a bargain only $19.99
We want cars and trucks you see,
And of course Monopoly,
See this camera it’s so nice
Look it’s made by Fisher Price
Like I said to you before, never take kids to a store,
All your gonna hear is, we want more and more
Why do you need that Care Bear There’s one at home I think,
But Tatty that one’s Yellow and this one is Pink
Do you see this storybook it’s something that I need,
I’d love to buy it Shmully, BUT YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO READ!
We want robots that can talk
And animals that walk
We want checkers we want chess,
WE WON’T EVER LEAVE A MESS
Like I said to you before, never take kids to a store,
All your gonna hear is, we want more and more
They were crying, they were shouting, why i’ll bet one even screamed
And you wisped, please be quiet, you don’t want to make a scene
So you bought them all you wanted, more then you can afford,
And an hour after you got home, they said…. TATTY WE ARE BORED
But kids who have good middos, are simply not that way
They learn how to appreciate whatever comes their way
And you can even disregard all that I’ve said before
And let them come along with you
When – you – go – to – a – store.
May 25, 2009 10:33 pm at 10:33 pm #1118311YW Moderator-42ModeratorIt’s like Choshech Mitzraim down there!
May 25, 2009 10:45 pm at 10:45 pm #1118312postsemgirlMemberames- his name is Professor Doubbletalk not Dumbledore because when he talks he says everything twice. “Hello Hello how can I help you in what way can I be of assistance to you….goodbye have a nice day aruvwa(I spelled that wrong)…”
May 25, 2009 11:37 pm at 11:37 pm #1118313kapustaParticipant42, maybe you’re right… sheesh, now everyone buckle up for a trip down kapustas memory lane. (not as in the history of cabbage. 😉 )
May 26, 2009 12:50 am at 12:50 am #1118314goody613Memberjustsmile- wow you mustv’e been obsessed with the MMM 😉
May 26, 2009 4:59 pm at 4:59 pm #1118315Just SmileParticipantI happen to have a pretty good memory of lyrics, but I did cheat and lusten to the song to remember some of them, I haven’t heard the song in YEARS!
Any other requests?
(But, yes, I was obsessed with the MMM)
May 26, 2009 5:13 pm at 5:13 pm #1118316xoxoMemberOH
MY
GOD
May 26, 2009 5:16 pm at 5:16 pm #1118317squeakParticipantI always felt that if Mr. Katz (of Katz’s Vedding ConSULteeng Aigencee) would learn to be “a little bit more modest” himself, it is likely that his kids would not behave that way.
May 26, 2009 9:01 pm at 9:01 pm #1118318kapustaParticipantmiddos are the way we act and how we think and feel, the Torah tells us just what we should do… so if you want to do whats right and really be a mench, you’ve got to have good middos through and through…
Midvar sheker tirchak never tell a lie, Hashem knows just what happened theres no reason to denie, honesty is emes, make sure all your words are true, so tatty, mommy and Hashem will be so proud of you.
up up and away, oh what a special day dr middos has invented something you have never seen. up up and away, oh what a special day, its the absolutely marvelous middos machine.
I’m on a roll here… if you pass by anyone on the street humming one of these, introduce yourself!

May 26, 2009 11:36 pm at 11:36 pm #1118322goody613Memberkapusta i think thats as far as “mista oswalt” went too he said it over and over

“Be quiet be quiet! I bet you think this is your lucky break. Wrong! Your luck is running out I’m driving you home!”

Just Smile, why haven’t you heard them in years? Did you grow up or something? I still listen to the MMM songs all the time. Then again, I’m not sure if I have grown up yet!
