Lazy Dork: The Answers

A few weeks ago I wrote about the popular YouTube user and partner Ricky Stern AKA LazyDork who for the last few months has been missing from YouTube..., I am now able to reveal the reason why he quit making his very funny and entertaining videos.

Lazy DorkIn September 2006 Ricky quit his job as a Miami-Dade prosecutor in order to move to Las Vegas to become a professional poker player, Ricky also said that he was going to use his free time to produce more YouTube videos.

One rumour circulating is the LazyDork has quite YouTube in order to find himself a job, an insider says that Ricky plans to move back to Miami and worries that his zany videos may put off potential employers.

The official line however, is that Ricky isn't happy with the direction that YouTube has chosen to take, in his most recent (and it would seem final) "Radio Hour" podcast available from LazyDork.com Ricky makes the following statement:

"Let me tell you something, YouTube is now, on their front page, featuring only professional videos, that's it. If you're not a band and if you're not a professional video maker you're not going to get any attention on the site. Well this is why I quit, YouTube is for professionals and not me."

So mystery solved, if only we could change his mind.
