A little help with time calculations

[iminal]

I am trying to make a very simple program and am very new to the whole
programming thing. my program is supposed to ask a user for any time in
the for format XX:XX:XX and then ask for a time corrrection to add or
subtract to this. my only problem is that once the user inputs the time
and the correction its adding it like it was 100 not to 60 any help?

what i have so far is :

# Get values needed to make time calculations
CT = input("input your chronometer time (ex. 07:21:46): ")
CE = input("input your chronometer correction (ex. 00:01:32): ")
CEfastslow = raw_input("is your chronometer correction fast or
slow: ")

#decide either to subtract or add CE from/to CT
if CEfastslow == "fast":
CEfastslow = CT - CE
if CEfastslow == "slow":
CEfastslow = CT + CE

but this just doesnt deal with the numbers in time format its acting
like they are just regualr integers adding them up like regular numbers

i am trying to figure out what u posted and it seems a little
complicated im trying to add it in somehow and figure out exactly what
its doing but still looking for a little easier of a way

thanks so far
