Sadly, my ancestors were all Confederate Army ... nary a Sailor among them until my grandfathers decided to serve on the other side during The Great War. We let by-gone be by-gones ... it just took about a half-century.
I would like to think that somewhere a Confederate Navy man is chuckl'n a bit.
Confederate troops scuttled the ironclad CSS Georgia to prevent its capture by Gen. William T. Sherman when his Union troops took Savannah in December 1864. It's been on the river bottom ever since. Now, the Civil War shipwreck sits in the way of a government agency's $653 million plan to deepen the waterway that links the nation's fourth-busiest container port to the Atlantic Ocean. The ship's remains are considered so historically significant that dredging the river is prohibited within 50 feet of the wreckage.Hat tip SP.

But if you find yourself going off on long tangents about personal matters, it's time to get back on track. The whole professional vs. personal ratio also has to be calculated with your topic and target audience in mind. You should not, however, blog about anything that you wouldn't write in a business email.

You can draw inspiration from others, but make sure you instill your blog with your own personality as well!
