Man learns casino losses not deductible

NEW YORK, Feb. 9 (UPI) -- A group of New York urban artists are decorating city poles with satirical messages disguised as actual road signs.
The urban artists, who call themselves TrustoCorp, told the New York Post their "goal is to populate our streets with satire and healthy doses of sarcasm."
One of the signs, which features a hand firing a lightning bolt, reads: "Caution. God thinks you are stupid. Notice: Ignoring God is un-American."
Some passersby said they do not find the satire humorous.
"What's the point this person is trying to make?" asked Jessiva Lian, 37.
