Now the folks on my dad's side (the Johnson William side) were for the most part roughnecks and outlaws. I was at a Richardson family reunion at the tender age of 4, and cops had to break it up. Every one of em from ole lady Richardson, my granny on that side, to my youngest uncle got into a saloon style chair smashing brawl. The old man sustained a knife wound to the hand and virtually every stick of furniture in the house got broken along with a few heads.
That's where you get that from!
