What's the LA trip verdict going to be?

So far, the probability of this trip happening is under 5%. As much as I am disappointed for the continuous steady drop in our likelihood of going & as much as you guys especially are disappointed of this unfortunate unlikelihood, just remember you & I must stay strong & pray that we are at the minimum just going to Charlotte during the high school graduation trip.

What will happen if it ends up being a NO?

If it ends up being a no, you & I will definitely be upset for the moment, but in the meantime, a new probably trend chart will open up between now & Christmas week of us going to Pittsburgh. From Verdict Day until the week BEFORE Christmas week, I will give you new charts once weekly. Your job will be to recognize a trend between each chart to determine the likelihood of us going to Pittsburgh. A final verdict will be on the EleFilm blog by December 22nd.

In addition, if we are NOT going to Pittsburgh by December 22nd (a verdict will be up by the 22nd anyway at 4:15 PM if LA IS NOT HAPPENING), then, you will know of any immediate emergency plans which I currently have in place for the worst case scenario. These plans include, but are not limited to:
  • Going to the Hyatt Centric, Le Parker Meridien, Marriott Marquis, WTC & / or the Millennium WTC Hilton hotel in New York City (This time I will not film any generic lift that goes beyond 5 floors unless I know for definite sure it is hydraulic).
  • Going back to Secaucus to film epic lifts that I haven't been able to go to film during my past 2 to 3 trips to Secaucus to film lifts
  • Going to Atlantic City
  • Going to Cromwell

What will happen if it miraculously is NOT a no?

Well, if that happens (I have huge doubts it will though), you & I will definitely be extremely excited just for the moment. Between the verdict days & December 17, a big blog post will be developed & it will come to the EleFilm blog. It will be developed over a series of days so that only the most accurate information possible could be delivered. I will gradually add to the post when I find out important details of the trip itinerary. However, if we end up being able to go to LA & if we do go, these are the three places I want to film the lifts:
  • OUE Skyspace LA
  • Wilshire Grand Plaza
  • Holiday Inn Express Burbank (Tower hotels)
In addition, if we do end up being able to go & end up going anyway, expect lots of pre-trip posts to be popping up on the EleFilm blog randomly between the moment the blog post for the itinerary pops up (on December 17) & the night before we get on the plane.

For lift videos, you will know what lifts I have filmed in a #FRIRND post AFTER I FILMED THE LIFT! You will not know beforehand, they will all be surprises. I am doing the exact opposite of what I did on the Fort Lauderdale trip, though as a way to avoid this being a disaster. Remember, I'm going to LA to be amazed, not miss out! 

How to prepare in the meantime

While you're waiting for the verdict to show up on December 7 (which is literally not even 2 weeks away), keep your mind at ease by not even thinking about it & having a good time with your friends to cool off. If anything should happen you will be notified of it right away via #FRIRND.

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

LIFT FILMING AGENDA UPDATE 1.25.2019 & WILL CHICAGO BE CROWNED THE NEW KING?

Chicago holds a high possibility of being crowned first place . What if I told you that Chicago has some rare and exotic lifts that you probably won’t find in many other places in the U.S.? That is an existence a lift filmer will be delighted with when they go to the city of Chicago. My four figures of reference were: WI Sirens and Elevators Elevators of Lake County CHI Elevators Windy City Elevators Because I have found so many outstanding Montgomery, Dover, SchindlerHaughton, Westinghouse and KONE lifts throughout the city of Chicago, it wouldn’t be sensible for me to write it all under one big blog post, because it would be a big waste of time for me to go into big, elaborate detail on what made each lift stand out. What I found on YouTube in terms of Chicago lifts Mitsubishi and Fujitec These lift filmers have walked around the city of Chicago filming some super nice lifts, and in the process of watching YouTube videos over the past few months, I have found that Ch...

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A 700A

Tallest 700A’s I have been on Arguably, at 20 stories, these have been the tallest Schindler 700A’s I have EVER been on, and the first I’ve been on in a hotel. However, I have noticed some interesting characteristics of the Schindler 700A in mid to high rise applications. Epic lifts indeed To start off, these lifts had absolutely incredible acceleration, deceleration and leveling. They take off like rockets and travel at a mindblowing speed of 120 meters per minute, despite serving a travel distance of 55-60 meters. The deceleration is similar to the Schindler 700A’s at the Nordstrom store at the Mall at Short Hills, as it smoothly phases into its full deceleration mode. In terms of character, these lifts do tend to make a little bit of noise and shake on the way up and down the tower. Car 3 makes a very loud screeching noise as it accelerates towards level 17 going down, which I find to make the ride even more fun. These lifts were installed in 1993, which gives them even more 199...
