The website didn’t share the info, it was filmed right in the video as the initial frame - like a title shot. So the page of preview thumbnails had it right there. It is apparently her real name as shown on the auditor’s property report.

No, squinting doesn’t work well with binoculars…

It would definitely be distracting to be watching porn and recognize your own hydrangea bush in the background.

I clicked on her profile and it states, “I work as a part time escort in ----------, Ohio”.

> Everybody has to live somewhere. I’ve done some handyman work in a hooker’s apartment while she was, um, on duty

Some years ago I had a leak in my ceiling from the apartment upstairs, evidently from condensation from an air conditioner. I went up to see what was going on. A young woman opened the door. While I was explaining, her flatmate, another attractive looking woman, arrived with a guy in tow who looked at me rather sheepishly. This was in the middle of the afternoon.

She let me in and I was surprised to discover that the three-bedroom apartment was evidently set up to accommodate five girls. I checked out the air conditioner, and sure enough it was leaking. The girl promised to fix it, and I left.

I didn’t find out until some months after they vacated that they were five strippers who worked at a big club a couple of blocks away. In Panama, most strippers also hook on the side. It also explained mysterious tapping sounds I used to hear from the upstairs apartment starting about 10 PM. It was the girls walking around in high heels as they prepared to go to work.

Study her videos closely, you may see yourself walking the dog in the background.

You joke, but…  
She gave me a big hug one day, and I could smell her perfume on me. I was not about to try to explain that to my wife, so I had to get extra sweaty and work out for a long time to let it dissipate.

I believe I recall who this is, and boy has she branched out lately.

She hasn’t done any outdoor videos yet. I’ll have to search more sites for her name tonight to see what shows up.

But… I was just out front vacuuming leaves when the car pulled out of their driveway and went past me. I gave a big smile and friendly neighbor nod and I think she mouthed, “Call me”. Then again it might have been the older woman.

I did a bit more checking and the woman who lives at the same house is 62 and the daughter is 37. The daughter’s public profile on Mylife states she works from home as an escort and used to be a porn star named ----- but still does private films. The profile lists her address, phone and several AKAs including her stage names plus her photo.

She is employed as a pharmacist’s assistant at a nearby pharmacy, also listed. She certainly isn’t trying to hide anything.

She no doubt enhances the sales of certain blood pressure medications.🙂

I had never heard of this pharmacy before. Turns out they are a private pharmacy providing services to nursing homes, retirement centers, etc.

In the circle of friends I had when I lived in the Greater L.A. area was a woman, attractive, mid-to-late forties when I knew her (at the time, late twenties to early thirties). She worked in the porn industry, but on her own account, just office/administrative duties. However, I had it on good authority she was a “fluffer.” Remembering what she looked like, I totally believe it.

I know that Mike South had one. I’ve been reading his site (blog for industry info) for many years, though he no longer owns it and rarely contributes.
