The lawyers around San Antonio talked about the judges in that town doing a lot of Yankee Jawing. But they also smile really big and nod their heads ... as they plunge the knife in your back. As do other Southerners. Less billigerent, but just as bellicose.
In deep south Texas, on the other hand, they have a reputation for announcing their intentions. "Look here, I'm going to screw you!" Then, a few minutes later, "Now, do you feel screwed?"
