I drew this cartoon last week for The Costa Rica Star and I totally forgot to post it here. I like to let The Star have it on their site for a day or two before I publish it on my page. From the Star's article: The La Platina Bridge in Costa Rica is the main... Continue Reading →
Discovering Water In Costa Rica
Here's this week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. The Discovery channel is bringing a huge theme park to Costa Rica. It's going to land in the city of Liberia in the Guanacaste province. One big issue is water. There is a water shortage in Guanacaste. The theme park is going to use a LOT... Continue Reading →
Getting Cheesy In Costa Rica
I'm a little late with this but here's last week's cartoon drawn for The Costa Rica Star. I draw so many cartoons that sometimes I forget I did something the day before. It's Saturday morning now and I can't remember what I drew Thursday. I was having fun with the story that Chuck E. Cheese... Continue Reading →
Make Nicaragua Pay For It
This ran last Friday in The Costa Rica Star. Costa Rica's president Luis Guillermo Solís visited Washington last week and had a meeting with U.S. vice president Mike Pence. Since Silos is a male, Pence's wife didn't have to attend the meeting (What is that about? Pence won't meet or have a meal in a... Continue Reading →
Fishy President In Costa Rica

She won an Oscar last Sunday. During this video the prez is playing piano and attempting to entice Stone to visit. She apparently made a... Continue Reading →
Kardashians Vs. Sloths
I had a little fun this week for the cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. Yeah, I know. Kardashians visiting Costa Rica. Big news, right? Plus, I like sloths. I have to confess I'll never understand our pop culture that allows people to be famous who haven't done anything. Did you like this cartoon? Want... Continue Reading →
Liberal Paradise
I drew this for Friday's edition of The Costa Rica Star. I've always found it really stupid when people say they're going to move out of the country if their side loses an election. Nobody ever does it. Rush Limbaugh promised to leave the United States for Costa Rica if Obamacare lasted five years. He's... Continue Reading →
Banking With Sloths
Here's the second cartoon of December for The Costa Rica Star's Living Pura Vida series. Getting a bank loan in Costa Rica is really difficult if not possible. There are no mortgage companies in Costa Rica and any loan has to be by a bank or personal. In the U.S. that would probably be a... Continue Reading →

According to my sources you can find anything you want in a Red Taxi in Costa Rica. A woman, drugs, lawyers, real estate, etc.... Continue Reading →
Battening Down In Costa Rica
I stole this idea for this week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. I stole it from myself. When Hurricane Katrina was sweeping its way toward New Orleans I submitted this idea to my editorial page editor at The Free Lance-Star. Not only did he not approve it, he got upset. Really upset. He did... Continue Reading →
