Lets go with what the watch says.. and that is.. help me out here Bill.

We are but George is in the Central time zone and not all areas in the Eastern time zone observe Daylight Saving Time so the proper way is to specify it when you pick a time, either 3:30 EDT or 3:30 EST which is and hour after 3:30 EDT. I did ask twice and it's not as simple as you all think.

CLICK HERE to see how much of a mess this can be.

Yeah I've never been to good with that. I just go here http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/timer.pl and set my watch and go. According to the navy I'm on EDT so I'll stick with that. I do see how this could be a problem.

Basically I was figuring the price total of the cigars I wanted then using what I had to equal the price. I figured the cigars I wanted total about 38 bucks and the cigars I was putting in totaled around 40.

This is an incorrect process. What I should be concerned with is quality = quality, not $ = $

So tonight I'm go back through the box and do it on a quality = quality standard.

Excellent!! Thank you Diesel Grinch for giving nhcigarfan the heads up and thank you nhcigarfan for saying "Oh, okay, I'm new to this whole pass thing so I'll re-do my P/T's" :smiley20:

All of this happened without any bad blood or hurt feelings which is the way it should be. Unfortunately this is NOT always the case. If I had some time, I'd dig up some classics from CigarPass :smiley36: where a buncha grown men act like six year olds (and I'm not counting me out of that group either :smiley4: )

Thanks again to everyone :smiley20:

There may be a late addition.

I may be getting a couple of Perdomo Edicion de Silvio Double Corona's today. That is if DHL's estimated delivery date is correct. If so I'll trade one of those for the 1926 if that's alright with the rest of you.
