harboring a grudge or any such nonsense, are you?
Anyhow, seeing as you didn't delete the message, I'll guess your post had a small tongue-in-cheek aspect.
Generals do have something in common: they're used to ordering large groups of people around and they have a superior bearing w/out posturing, which exactly is what Travolta did. He quite obviously was acting the way he thought such a powerful figure would act, overdoing it as any poor actor would.
We've all had too much opportunity to see many generals on television and not one bore any similarity to the Travolta caricature.
