Jayson, to make something 'blink' use an attribute code of 05.  For
example, if you, dog forbid, wish to have the current directory flashing
yellow in your bash prompt, the relevent bit would look like:

DIRECTORY="\[\033[05;33m\]\w"

Have a look at /etc/DIR_COLORS for more information.

Cheers,
William
