Thanks for visiting. I’m a thirtysomething single Italian dude who lives in New York, working for an undisclosed government agency under the callsign, Desk Rider. I’m a fierce conservative, devoutly Christian, and I’ve been looking for the girl of my dreams ever since I was 8 years old. I hope to be able to leave my job some day and live off the Internet completely, no longer having to be tied down to one spot or trapped in a dull job, working for dull people. I also suffer from a hearing loss and a learning disability that sometimes makes it difficult for me to communicate with others in real life.
My site here is primarily a weblog (blog), and serves as a daily reflection of my personal life experiences, as well as my latest thoughts on topics such as Christianity, spirituality, love, politics, justice, technology and so on. My writings may also take on a storytelling nature, and certain facts, names and places may be changed in part to preserve the privacy of this blog, and those I know in real life.
About My Name:
Lincoln Adams is my pen name, taken from John Adams and Abraham Lincoln, two of my most favorite U.S. Presidents. My real name is actually {censored}.
Some Tips On Using My Site:
You can expand and collapse my posts by clicking on the oval button shown to the right of post titles. In addition, I also post Side Posts, which are short one or two line posts expressing random thoughts I might have between normal blogging posts. (Most of these “asides” can be found on Twitter too.) You can find them on the top of the front page or in my archives where they are converted into normal posts under the category Asides.
Side Posts are prefixed with this image, and the number shown at the end of each post indicates the number of comments that were made for that particular Aside.
At the end of each normal post you’ll see options to comment, print the post, rate it, or share it with other people and networks using the ShareThis button.
For my photo gallery, click on the blue arrow beneath the search field and you’ll see a menu that will allow you to view my photos in either a slideshow or other multimedia format. Click on the oval button next to the title for more information as well.
Enjoy, and thanks for visiting my blog!

I ‘Stumbled’ to your blog. I really like it. Good job. You write a lot like I do - honest with a little humor in there for good measure. I am a writer, so I let loose on my blog. I have a few, actually, floating around cyber space. I just wanted to drop a line and let you know that someone out here feels the same way you do about the horrors of trying to find that special someone. I look forward to reading more.
Glad you like it, sorry about the song by the way, but I figured better Chicago than Safety Dance.

Dear Mr. Lincoln,
Thanks so much for informing us about the Aaron Smith/Sharon Cresler scam.
We are two menopausal women looking for the cure when we stumbled upon the “menopause defeated 5 day cure” website. Before purchasing we did our due diligence and found your site. You are completely awesome! Keep busting these scumbags! You just saved us 25.00 and we ended up downloading the information for FREE. And it was not anything new and very amateurish.

This is interesting because Lincoln Adams is my real name. I can understand why you’d want to use it though (it’s pretty much the coolest name this side of Emporia.) I was just searching my name on Google when I stumbled on this, maybe I’ll do a little reading while I’m here… maybe.

You know… You speak with lots of conviction. But let me ask you - you do a lot of talking about how crazy some of the more activist christians are. But I want to know what in the world YOU are doing that backs up what you believe needs to happen in the Church today. Because you know what? You’re last blog post pissed me off. You were prrettty critical. And trust me, I’ve got my own critics. But I’m pretty interested to hear your response.
ps: I TOO get STRONGLY agitated by those who water Christianity down and also those who are all about the hooplah of the ideal emotional high that comes with the american christianity. So don’t think I’m somehow ticked because I’m one of them. But I’m also one who speaks out of humility and try my best to speak out of love. …?
However, you seem rather forthright. I enjoy this. So I’m actually giving you the time of day by actually commenting you.
@Sarah: Which blog post was that? I have a lot of posts that tends to provoke people into a homicidal rage.
I thought I was put on this Earth by the way to rage against the polluted Christian machina, while not lifting a finger to do anything about it. After all, I am but an insignificant speck of dust in the wind who cannot presume to have any notable impact on this world.

har har. Actually I stumbled upon this website looking for a particular sermon or something. It had to do with Lou Engle and Jason Upton. Though you had good points, I still think that unless you have the action to back up such pointed language, you should probably hush-hush and start DOING something. This however, is not insinuating that you do NOT do anything at all. This is merely stating that you must be some sort of insanely amazing servant-evangelist who is truly doing many things to prove that you can follow God with NO emotion whatsoever, since we’re being sarcastic and all.

And ps: I am in no means, a “homicidal raging” person.
However, your way of writing, which I will point out comes off as rather arrogant and thoughtfully conceited, DOES tend to agitate an unbeknowing and rather INNOCENT passerbyer.
Truth be told though I use this medium to voice my frustrations with the church, not really to win any converts. I don’t believe I could really persuade anyone of my beliefs, even if I was all snuggly and wubsy like.

To be honest, I am myself, not innocent of voicing my frustrations about the church on my own blog. However, God has hit me with my own blogs right upside the head in line with the convictions I began to speak of. hehe. Needless to say, I do a whole lot more then I write these days. …. I do miss writing though, I’m not going to lie.

I also stumbled upon your website and I’m glad I did. Though I don’t know what I like better–your blogs or that dancing banana! I share your views about the way America has glorified Obama and it struck me too, in the days leading up to the election, that it seemed this is the way the AntiChrist would win the country. I also think this country is headed to hell in a handbasket with a pretty red bow. Personally, I’m planning on defecting, so if you thinking about leaving the country too, let me know. There’s a group of us! It’s cheaper to leave together I think. Anyway, keep on writing and continue to seek the Lord with the Spirit of Truth. By the way, since your name is Lincoln, I think you should write a blog about Obama being sworn in on Abraham Lincoln’s Bible. That’s got to bug you. Sorry for the long post. I don’t know when to shut up.

Ann, the “menopause defeated” is a scam, containing nothing more than platitudes and fake testimonials. If you want something authentic and helpful I would suggest reading WebMD:

I to as a result of my accident have a couple of disabilities, 50% left disabled left foot and a paralyzed vocal chord. Labels are just a referrence point that’s all.

Read through some older posts earlier. Advice on the job thing/thinking you suck thing: I knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life when I was a junior in high school–there was no other doubt in my mind that I wanted to go into social work. Going through school and actually interviewing for jobs for it was a totally different monster. I still struggle with “ok I’ve gone to school for this, now how do I make it happen?” I KNOW I’ve been equipped with the tools to make a wonderful reputation and successful career for myself, but thinking and doing are two very different things. Being down in the dumps and thinking you suck is normal–we are not all super positive happy go lucky people all of the time. If you need any advice on being burned out and staying, I shall consult my plethora of textbooks I own.

Thank you darling, that was very kind of you to say. I know how you feel though, sometimes those who claim the mantel of conservative Christianity drive me even battier than the heathen liberals do. Sometimes I just want to hide in the mountains somewhere just to get away from it all… provided I have a nice stockpile of foods so I can make pizza and cupcakes every day.

The church I attend doesn’t have many singles - and a good friend of mine has the same issue - she is waiting on the guy that the Lord has for her.
Keep your chin up - and remember it will be worth the wait. There is nothing like a good Christian family.
