How to update the appearance of a morph in mid-method?

A more elegant solution would be to use the alarm handling methods:

flashBorder
    | oldBorderColor |
    oldBorderColor := self borderColor.
    self borderColor: Color blue.
    self addAlarm: #borderColor: with: oldBorderColor after: 3000.    
"reset the border color after 3 seconds"

You only have to be careful not to call this method while the border 
color is set to blue - otherwise the change will be permanent...
