Karma Chameleon, Boy George works off some community service

"Do you really want to hurt me?" was a Culture Club hit in the 80's for lead singer Boy George; now it seems these words echo on the streets of New York as the old Karma chameleon has changed colors once again to put our "favourite" Boy of makeup, George O'Dowd into the ranks of the New York Dept of Sanitation for the last 5 days to work off a false burglary report which he filed back in March.

"When you want to get down, get down on the town Cocaine..."
Last March, Boy George called the Po-Pos to report a burglary at his lower-Manhatten flat. While filing the report the flatfoots found Cocaine and a ton of makeup @ Boy George's humble abode. (Free Advice: When you call the Police to report a break-in, make sure you stowe away all illegal substances and firearms). The Cocaine charge did not stick because 1) Boy George has an attorney who earns his keep and 2) Despite attempts by BushCo to do away with the Bill of Rights, we still have the 5th Amendment (Illegal search and seizure) in this country.

Boy George did perform his community service under the watchful eye of the Press-btw, why the hell was the Press Corps following this? Was it news? Or should a washed up 80's pop-star doing community service be news? (Why am I even posting about this?) But due to the stress of the Press, George yelled at his provaceteurs to be left alone, and to be allowed to work. I am not sure if the outbursts by George were appropriate, but what was he going to do? I mean, he could have let a fellow broom-handler give him a slow beat and belted out ever so softly, "Give me time, to release my crime. Words are few that I have spoken. Wrapped in sorrow words are token, come inside (the gate of this parking lot) and catch my tears... Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry"
But that my friends would have been what they call "poetic justice" which only happens in musicals by Meistro Marcus Campbell not in the mean streets of the Big Apple.
