Oh, no, it’s in Florida

By Jimmy Johnson

We continue in the current century with today’s classic cartoon, which first appeared in 2007. There is an island called “Ono Island” in Bayou St. John on the border of Florida and Alabama. The waggish locals will tell you it is called “Ono Island” because of an endless exchange: “It’s in Florida.” “Oh no, it’s in Alabama.” Ad infinitum and vice versa. The story almost certainly isn’t true, and Ono Island is, by the way, in Alabama.
