Well done you! Someone on the Schnauzer forum uses the couplet: "When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout!" and calls it the Mini Schnauzer code! That's just what they do!!! Where does it come from originally? |

Quote:
WHEN IN DANGER, WHEN IN DOUBT, RUN IN CIRCLES, SCREAM AND SHOUT and its variations appear to have begun as a U.S. military (Navy and Army) expression. Herman Wouk (see 1951 quote below) called it an ‘ancient adage,’ while most others called it an ‘old saying/motto/maxim/adage.’ But from the evidence below, I would say that the expression is not all that old and that it probably came into existence during WW II. |
