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 →
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 →
Here's this week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. I was reading a story how bicycling can be very dangerous in Costa Rica. It seems drivers don't really care, or look out for cyclists. It's not that different here. Though in Costa Rica there was a huge protest on this issue. I heard a joke... Continue Reading →

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 →
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 →
Speculation about what a Trump presidency actually means isn't limited to people in the United States. There's concern worldwide and Costa Rica isn't an exception. While many wonder if it'll affect trade others speculate on real estate if Americans decide to flee the Trump regime in large numbers for Costa Rica. Costa Rica participated in... Continue Reading →
Here is this week's cartoon for The Costa Rica Star. Costa Rica is noted for its high quality of life. They have universal health care and a higher life expectancy than the United States. They don't even have an army. They have created "blue zones" which are areas with a high quality of life. In... Continue Reading →
Didn't I tell you Claytoonz was going international? I've had my work published outside the U.S. before, many times, but now I'm going to draw two exclusive cartoons every month for The Costa Rica Star. They're also carrying my syndicated cartoons that each of my newspaper clients receive. The Star is in English and is... Continue Reading →
