Does anybody know where I can get a free Macy's gift card?

About Me

I am bigger than a bread box, smaller than a refrigerator. I am fully conversant on "stuff" and "things" and can talk about either without hesitation. I can create life-preserving devices out of duct tape, paper clips, rubber bands and some BisQuick. I am grounded yet the laws of gravity don’t apply to me. Strangers compliment my hair style regularly. I have personally calculated Pi out to 7 decimal points. Crowds gather to watch me parallel park and erupt in spontaneous applause at my efforts. I know about the escargot fork and the soup knife. I can channel Elvis. I roll gangsta. I've got a lot of street cred, and I drink only Goldschlager® in order to enhance my inner "bling." Women want to be me. Men want to be with me. Evildoers fear me. But I'm also sensitive. Squirrels and birds alight on my outstretched arms when I walk through Rock Creek Park. I know several traditional wedding dances, including the Electric Slide, the Tush Push, the Frug, the Robocop and the YMCA. I have been known to eat an entire sandwich in only one sitting. Tourists frequently ask me for directions, trusting me with their very lives. I got it goin’ like a turbo ‘vette. What about you?
