The TrustoCorp is back with some new signage. Last we checked they were advising not to Feed the Hipsters, and now they're sprinkling Brooklyn with some positive messages, for example: things get better, everything is fine, and most importantly the End of Days has been postponed! (Which we knew.) There is one bit of bad news, however, one sign announces the start of pigeon season, noting: "Due to the recession, pigeons in this area have been re-zoned for consumption.” Let us know if you spot any others around town... or if you have a good recipe for pigeon casserole.
