Fooled You: Melissa Rathbun-Nealy, the first female POW in the Gulf War, jumped the gun on the media and quietly married a fellow soldier in a small ceremony in Texas before a justice of the peace March 28. Rathbun-Nealy, 21, had said she was going to marry 31-year-old Michael Coleman in August, “but she got tired of the publicity. That’s one of the reasons they got married quietly,” said her mother, Joan Rathbun. Rathbun-Nealy has been showered with book and movie contracts and invitations to throw out the first ball at two opening-day major league baseball games.

When asked how long the swelling would last, Menem said: “Ask the wasp.”

Out From Under: Former British secret agent Peter Wright plans a sequel to his best-selling book, “Spycatcher,” which lifted the lid on Britain’s counter-espionage service. Wright, 74, who lives on the Australian island state of Tasmania, fought a prolonged and costly court battle in the 1980s against British attempts to prevent publication in Australia of “Spycatcher” after it was banned in Britain and Hong Kong. The brouhaha pumped the book’s sales up to 2 million copies worldwide.
