Blu Kennedy ?? plus other question

[+ Reisr30]

Hi,

 

I am a complete newbie and have a few questions. But my first one is regarding Blu Kennedy who I have always liked in films. I noticed his add was up for a couple of days and then disappeared but now is back up:

 

http://www.rentboy.com/Listing.aspx?lid=251731&type=escort

 

I am wondering if this is really him and if anyone has any experience meeting him. The other thing i noticed is he now says "sometimes safe" which concerns me a bit (maybe this rules him out for me)...

 

My second question is around discretion and escorts. Maybe i am paranoid but do escorts maintain your contact info and name in a lists that could be found. I guess I watch too many shows on TV but just worried this info would get out or be found... Sorry if this question is dumb but a newbie here and thought i would ask.

 

Thanks for any responses in advance.

No experience to report on your stud of choice, although the ad is so minimal about what a session will be like, be sure to flesh out what you want and what he is into. And yes, the less than safer practices is a disqualifier for me, but that's just me.

 

As for your info, you should expect that any escort will save your emails and your email address and will save your number in their phone. As soon as you start contacting escorts, your ISP, your cell phone carrier, and good ole Uncle Sam (compliments of the NSA) will know all about it. If that worries you, don't start this hobby, or make your contacts with a cheaper throw away phone, pay as you go, paid with cash, fund your minutes with cash. I use a separate email to handle contacts, and have multiple numbers via google voice to text and call, but that's for identity protection to guard against a crazy stalker type. It helps that I have no social media presence, and almost nothing of my identity can be found on the internet.

 

Of course, I'm carefree, retired, and have nothing to hide...... well......not too much to hide. :-)

 

Google, microsoft, att, sprint, verizon, and uncle sam know what I'm doing, and I don't give a damn.

[jawjateck]

Oh yeah....This really is a great hobby. Give it a try. Have fun, but rather than start with an unknown quantity, pick one of our more highly regarded/reviewed studs, and GET IN THE GAME! ;-)

I realize some may be skeptical that all the government and various ISPs/telecom carriers know about them is their metadata, but seeing as the ALCU, which is engaged in litigation against the NSA over the surveillance program involving calls made through Verizon has yet (to my knowledge) to allege that actual content has been breached, all any of them know is that you called number xyz (or were called by number xyz) which belongs to person abc, or e-mailed address xyz which belongs to person abc, how long the calls or e-mails were, and potentially whether you sent an attachment and what type (document, image, etc.). (And that's assuming the escort himself hasn't taken steps to remain anonymous.) The fact that the number you called or the e-mail address you sent a message to belong to an escort would require additional research or knowledge to ferret out. I really doubt that any of these entities have much incentive to take the time to find that out unless your biggest enemy or next-door neighbor happens to work there.

 

Also, in my experience, the government isn't as all-knowing and all-seeing as you think. I used to work for one of the most feared US government agencies (think taxes), and I can tell you with absolute certainty that one of the biggest problems I encountered was that the right hand often didn't know what the left hand was doing. Admittedly, computers weren't in as much use back then -- I was there when counsel's office was just beginning to computerize case data -- but I saw such things as another office indicating they'd sent us a file we never received. Our head secretary's suggestion that it was easy and perfectly possible for someone to change the database without actually sending the file seemed to go over the head of whomever she spoke to.

 

I had a case once for which I needed prior year's returns. The service center I dealt with only found them after I sent the director a pointed memo about it a couple of months before the scheduled trial. (Protocol prevented me from sending such a memo sooner.) Back then some of the more esoteric information was still kept on index cards; hopefully it's all computerized now.

 

The NSA probably has better computers than the IRS, even these days, but I wouldn't bet that they're that much more efficient. Size and bureaucracy are still impediments.

First, welcome to the Forum, Reisr30 as I see this is your first post.

 

For the sake of discretion you may want to create a "hiring identity".

 

Open a new gmail account that is separate from my usual email account and a google voice number that links to that account.

I should also add.....that your first hire may be your most important hire. A great hire will lead to sexy fun for that occasion and more hot sessions in the future. My first hire was outstanding. A lousy hire could sour you about all of this, lead you to fall away and never try again. In that case, you will give away the pleasure of enjoying the company of amazing men. I guarantee this.....you do not want to miss the fun that is available to us.

 

So.....no pressure.....but get your first hire right. It is important.

Thanks for the responses and suggestions guys. Very helpful and much appreciated. And even though I loved Blu in his films, I will take your advice and look for a guy who is a known quantity and well reviewed.

The reality is that, just like a bar pickup, there is always going to be an element of risk in this hobby- ya gotta look at it as a part of the game. Common sense takes you a long way, like a separate e-mail for just hobby use, but the reviews here can put you at ease if you're nervous. Be sure to write a review yourself, maybe you'll put someone else's mind at ease later on. Nobody is looking our for our hobbyists, except ourselves, so let all of us know what's up!

[bdcjskm]

jawjateck is spot on. When I started, I benefitted greatly from Daddy's reviews and studied them carefully before choosing my first meeting. I chose someone who had been in the business for a very long time and had many great reviews. They gave me a flavor of the individual and his compatibility for my hopes for the meeting. It exceeded my expectations and set a very high standard for me. As a result, I have met with many over the past couple of years, all of whom are highly reviewed and regarded. All have or will be regular hires for me. Do your planning, be honest with yourself and the professional and you will be embarking upon an adventure that is amazing. I am one of the lucky ones - I have found those that are in this profession to be some of the most interesting and enjoyable people I have met. I hope the same for you.

Another word of warning-I was a big fan of Blu Kennedy when he was doing porn, tried to book him and twice he flaked on me both times. Am not sure if this is really him back on the scene or just someone using his pics, but if it is him, be warned re the flakiness......

[tsgarp]

I'm pretty sure it's him. I saw him dance at Adonis early in the year and he's clearly still in the game to some extent. He still looks great but the "Sometimes Safe" status shut me down (good on him for being honest, though).

 

Sadly if you're into gingers there aren't many to choose from unless you're into bears and daddys...

[adriano46]

As much as he looks interesting, there are (for me) two red flags in the ad:

 

1) Drugs "occasionally" (for me I want a guy who is absolutely drug free -- which is hard to guarantee but at least not "high" when we meet);

 

2) Safe "occasionally" means buyer beware.

 

BTW - I just checked and his ad is no longer on RB in NYC. Coincidence from the chatter here?

[BabyBoomer]

I AGREE 1OO% with adriano!

Since Blu doesn't have any reviews on here on Daddy's, it's difficult to say what he would be like. I remember reading something - not sure if it was on the Forum- or just another website discussing escorts/pornstars that he wasn't the friendliest guy around. But then someone chimed in right after that they knew him personally and that he was a nice guy.

 

Considering how many of us like boy-next-store-looking/athletic gingers, he could be making a lot of money. But with his ad up so infrequently (assuming the ad was real), it doesn't seem like that he is really 'into' escorting. I wonder if maybe he only advertises, when he needs a little bit of extra cash flow.

What does the 'rt' stand for in 'bbrt'?

What does the 'rt' stand for in 'bbrt'?

 

Gman

According to Google it means "real time"

[armadillo]

And does he in fact, have a profile on BBRT?

Hi Thanks again for everyone's great responses. I found them all really helpful. I booked an appointment with a well reviewed guy in NYC who was one of this year's finalist. I have a few more questions. Is it best to meet at his hotel or book my own and have him meet me there? Again sorry to sound paranoid but I keep running all these awful scenarios in my head. The worse is getting in trouble (e.g. get caught etc). It's probably cause I am completely new to this. What else should be aware of? If there is an old newbie thread, feel free to point me to it. And again thanks for any advice.

[Steven_Draker]

... because you would not believe the number of guys who have a RB ad that says "Always Safe" and also have BBRT profiles.

 

Feel free to post links, TGuy.

 

Most people who practice safer sex don't have a reason to visit BBRT and look for escorts who have profiles there.

Reisr30,

If you stick to escorts who have been reviewed positively multiple times by multiple reviewers you're putting all your chances on your side.

 

Here's an old newbie thread, that you may find (very) helpful.
