I attended BlogOrlando Saturday at Rollins College in Winter Haven, Florida. Coming from Tampa and then going home to Orlando, the traveling wasn’t terrible for me.

Snooze, You Win According to new studies, nothing tunes up mind and body like a good nap. But there’s an art to catching the right kind of z’s. When billionaire adventurer Steve Fossett broke the record for around-the-world solo jet flight last March, he slept just 60 minutes in 67 hours of flight time — 60 minutes broken into two- and three-minute naps. “I slept when I needed it and awoke refreshed,” he says.

Hey guys,
I just wanted to take a second to officially welcome everyone to my weblog. Dustin’s Dispatch at DustinMooney.com is where I will post on my mind. I will cover headline news and politics, entertainment news, comedy and funny stuff from around the web, stuff from school, tech and sporting news, videos and other random stuff I find interesting. I love the interaction from readers and people letting me know what’s important to them.
The blog design has changed multiple times throughout the years, but the Obox Platform Theme is something that I really like and will continue to customize and perfect. Any site design or logo ideas are always welcomed.
Writing has always been something I have enjoyed. I love sharing my views and opinions on politics, news and current events. I love covering entertainment, technology and sporting news. I also enjoy throwing in random thoughts and post, stuff from school and anything funny I can think of. I hope you enjoy it and keep coming back.
Thanks and enjoy,
Dustin
