My thanks to NightWatchman's post on my White Flymph for the idea. ;)

"Another nice one Roadkill. You should name it “Marilyn” as I believe she liked wearing mink around around her shoulders as well."

Here is Marilyn with more appropriate bling...

I love the fly! ...the rest of it, the whole 'Marilyn' thing, I don't get. She never pumped any sunshine up my tookus; she looks like one of my old elementary school teachers. Must be a generational thing...

I think the fly itself looks great. Great coloring to it.

I personally prefer Rachel Welch.
