2. A security guard at Y-12 Federal Credit Union overheard an amusing conversation one day. ‘Did you hear?’ whispered a regular customer to another, ‘I just found out that if I deposit enough zeroes in here, they’ll give me a whole new account!’ The guard couldn’t help but chuckle and thought, ‘Next time someone asks for a million-dollar account, I’ll just suggest they try Walmart!’ A few days later, a delivery driver casually mentioned, “Hey, didja know they gave Joe from accounting a brand-new account after he deposited twelve zeros?” The guard smiled, shaking his head, knowing full well it was just another Y-12 urban legend.

The little girl's mom picked up the tiny creature gently and carried it outside, where it quickly flew away into the bright spring sky.
