Straight Line of the Day: How To Know You Have Eternal Life

How To Know You Have Eternal Life
Real Life with Jack Hibbs | Nov 1, 2025 | Jack Hibbs

The Bible teaches not only that we can gain eternal life . . . but that we can know it with certainty.

  • I want to soak Social Security for everything I’m worth.
  • None of my youthful, stupid, dangerous escapades ever wiped it out, when they very well could have.
  • Obama promised “If you like your doctor, you can keep him.” I take that as binding.
  • Nancy Pelosi seems to have it.
  • Telemarketers are happy to sell me wildly profitable life insurance if I should die. And muffler replacement. And a membership in a health spa.
  • I vowed to finish that bag of candy corn.

Talking Bottles

I’m on another “True Crime” kick . . . but can anyone clue me in as to the secret of the Talking Bottles?

I sure hope bottles don’t talk.

Oh, that intern? She’s fine. I imagine her girlfriends did this as some sort of hazing . . . while they disputed, presumably. They let her go after the picture was taken, and they all had a jolly good laugh.

Before the bottles started talking.

It’s a true police story!

Police have a fun job.

The sorority girls:

FIRST WITCH 
When shall we three meet again?
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
SECOND WITCH 
When the hurly-burly’s done,
When the bottle’s lost and won.
THIRD WITCH 
That will be ere the set of sun.

Kids don’t read enough Shakespeare anymore. Always too busy playfully tying their friends to plumbing.
