Just saw this and thought some of you guys might remember her...

(From "Gary's Cigar Blog" found at http://cigars.about.com/ )

Edie Adams, the sexy and seductive spokeswoman for Muriel Cigars back in the late 1950's and early 1960's, passed away on October 15, at the age of 81. She was known for her sultry delivery of the line, "Why don't you pick one up and smoke it sometime?"

Have a look: http://cigars.about.com/library/blpages/muriel.htm

Rest in Peace, Edie.

Thanks, Tom! Missed this the first time... around the time of the "big switch" so I guess I was distracted. ;)
