I wonder how many people "got" that humor in 1976??

I'll bet a lot more people got it in 1976 than last week, when the re-run ran in our newspaper. You have to be from the carburetor generation.....

I'm not sure I know what the vapors are. Old ladies used to get the vapors. Is there a doctor in the house?

Our friends at Google have an answer:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapours_( ... condition)

And this dictionary definition is more concise, and generally says what came to mind for me:

an old phrase meaning a feeling of weakness or sadness

Generally, it was one of those non-specific ailments, kinda like having a headache or feeling a bit faint.

On the other hand, I have had vapor lock.
