In The Twinkling of an Eye

According to Saint Paul, in his letter to the people of Corinth, he spoke these words:

"We shall all be changed, in the last moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the sound of the last trumpet," ~ 1st Corinthians 15, verse 52 (New King James Version of The Bible).

This idiom is of Hebrew origin. Using this particular phrase basically implies that something happens in rapid succession, in very fast terms, faster than the blink of an eye.

"In Cahoots"......................

Cahoot is used almost exclusively in the phrase "in cahoots," which means "in an alliance or partnership." In most contexts, it describes the conspiring activity of people up to no good.

"Loose Lips Sink Ships".........

It's an American English idiom meaning "beware of unguarded talk". Don't talk carelessly because you don't know who is listening. Running off at the mouth about something or someone and someone else overhearing could lead to one's downfall and demise!
