Ever had to do community service?
Boy George ordered to Sanitation Dept.
Tue Jun 27, 5:21 PM ET
NEW YORK - Boy George, garbage man. The one-time Culture Club singer will do five days of court-ordered community service as an employee of the
Department of Sanitation, a spokesman for the city agency confirmed Tuesday.
"He will be part of our team," said sanitation spokesman Keith Mellis. "We won't know exactly what he will be doing for several weeks, though."
The singer born George O'Dowd, who has struggled with drug problems for years, was ordered to do community service after pleading guilty in March to
false reporting of an incident. He called police with a bogus report of a burglary at his lower Manhattan apartment last October, and the responding
officers found cocaine inside.
O'Dowd, 45, became an '80s icon with his androgynous appearance and vocals on hits like "Karma Chameleon" and "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?"
Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Anthony Ferrara threatened the singer with jail time if he failed to complete his five days with "New York's Strongest"
before Aug. 28.

The fact that I'm not destroying the community is a service in and of itself.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

i got 320 hours of service for an 'assult' on somone who started the fight with me. i nearly got time for that but they gave me the hours so's i could
stay home with my wife and new born son.
The 320 hours that i got was, at the time the most that the courts could give you so i was lucky in some ways really. stayed outta jail and to be
honest, i really enjoyed doing the work. The cs officer who watched over us while doing the hours was really sound and we are actually really good
friends now. Because of the background in work that i had, i was allowed to manage the other lads on site and tell them what to do (i was a warehouse
manager at the time).

Have you ever noticed how crayons are a lot like M&M's? All the colors tend to taste the same.
