This week's Thursday Threesome entry, in honor of the new Fanny Flagg novel, Standing in the Rainbow.

Onesome: Standing - Any particular issue you feeling like standing up on your soap box and discussing?

The impending attack on Iraq. The only question in my mind now, is when? Within the last couple of weeks, we have had President Bush's speech to the UN, Iraq's agreement to allow the 'unconditional' return of UN weapons inspectors, the US essentially calling that move a bluff, Prime Minister Blair's Iraq 'dossier', and now, US Administration officials linking Al-Qaida to Iraq. Most countries are not 'on board' officially but I don't see anyone offering to step in from the sidelines should the US decide to 'shoot first and ask questions later'.

Twosome: in the - Finish the phrase "in the ...". Now, what made you go there?

In the midst of it all. Isn't that usually where all the excitement is?

Threesome: Rainbow - What's at the end of your rainbow?

A lemon drop martini.
