Aren't any of you people single?

but I just noticed ... they're CI matches, not CBid ... is there a difference that I should know about ???

One book has CIon it and the other has CBid!

When you get the cbid matches, they really like you.

So, does that mean if I've got CBid matches in the past, but am getting CI matches now, I've retrogressed in status ??

I recieved a UPS & USPS order today! One had CBid matches,the other had none. Both orders packed by a gal named Kitty. Must be random. Ive got plenty of matches before, just isnt everytime.

Use my excuse. I'm selling them to my brother-in-law for a profit!

Sonny, Try this one. Ya know honey, I may have went a bit overboard. But now my humidors are mostly filled, I have the auction thing figured out, I'm really gonna slow down now. Thanks for being so understanding! Mag, Kitty packed both boxes! She knows how many matches you need!

plabonte

correct response if one is needed. i can't even imagine toby mentioning negative about my cigars.

Rick You're not talking about the 2 Boxes of 25gars from the philippines you paid $ 4.00 each LMAOF

LOL!

New Cigarbid sideline: "Cigarbid Matches - For all of you singles out there!"

Real customer testimonial, "Why, just look at how much fun Slimboli and I are having, now that we've been matched up!"

In no instance that I can think of do I ever get matches from CBid. I always, with no exceptions get matches from CI. My wife got a box of candle matches in her stocking this year, and I think I found my new “lighter”. Those things are about 1/8” wide, 5” long and about 3/16” in depth. Perfect for cigar lighting.

Speaking of Wives…. Sonny if you think your wife will be upset then, stand up and admit what you did and tell her why you did it. Do it before she gets the bill. IMHO I would not redirect the problem, twist the reasoning to turn a negative into a positive or do anything to deceive your mate. You are after all married and this is your life partner. If you truly believe you acted inappropriately then apologize, if you truly believe that you acted responsibly and you behaved within your budget then I wouldn’t apologize, but gently tell her that what you did was justified and earned. If you feel that she spends too much money at the solon then that is another subject that you should talk about after the first is resolved, not as part of the cigar expenditures. If you bring it up within the same agreement (I do this but you do that) then all your doing is finger pointing, and that’s never good. The two key things you have to keep in mind when talking to your mate when they are upset is to stick to the subject and be honest.

Well that’s my .000002

CNCInc ... move that decimal point several places to the right ... make it a LOT of spaces to the right ... Ann Landers and Dear Abby couldn't have done a better job of offering advise if they'd written a joint response ...

WOW!

A straight, REAL answer!

CNC is the man! How could she be mad if you come clean?

Well, she may be mad, but now you've nothing to hide...honesty IS the best policy!

Then you can duck!

I think CNC is really Oprah.

in an argument between couples, the two words that are inappropriate are

never

always

like in "you never do or you always do."

nobody nevers and nobody always

Sonny, I hate to say it, but you are a dead man. I appreciate Chris' comments, however, the reality is plain and simple, there's not much you can do but lessen the blow, if I were you, I'd go out and visit a jeweler, not much else would work at this point, diamonds, diamonds, diamonds.

You are a big fella, maybe try and puff up when she confronts you?

Debit card. Use your debit card. No statement...no paper trail. Get the card statement...pay the bill. Do an Enron. And hope for the best.

When my CBID boxes arrives in the mail, I just tell my wife I lost another bet to Magnafide....lol.

Joel, I've always said that if I had a 50 pound chihuahua (mean little bastards), I'd run the world......she is the same, but much cuter. The more I'd puff up, the bigger her target gets;)
