So this is my first time writing, but have certainly enjoyed reading what the family has to say. Kudos to Amy and her "marrying into the Bankhead family". There were a few things she missed though. I don't know if this is a Bankhead thing or a Byron thing but Kara should know about the "bed ratio theory" which according to Byron is based loosely on his concept that because he is twice as big as me then he is intitled to twice as much of the bed. Also, the idea that you listen to music really loud, but rather than turn it down to talk, you just scream over the music. It most definantly doesn't seem to bother any of the bankhead boys to converse in this atmosphere. Also, Kara know that not only will you have to get used to writing the name Bankhead, but also you'll need to get used to spelling it out loud. For the last ten years this has been my experience when telling someone my last name for the first time. "My last name is Bankhead." "Bank what?" "Bankhead- B A N K H E A D." "Oh just how it sounds!" And lastly, one that I just realized more recently is that the bankhead clan when talking with each other have no problem talking at the same time. What is so fascinanting to me is that they have the ability to know what the other person said even though they were talking. It is very entertaining to watch. It is probably due to the mass amount of bankheads, they must have figured if they ever wanted to speak their minds they better just do it at the same time or else you would never be heard. But you must always keep in mind that the Bankhead's talk loud, snore even louder, but most importantly is that their actions speak the loudest of all. I can say first hand that whenever you are in need the bankheads are right there ready to help you whatever the cost. How I love the Bankhead Family.
