Hi, folks. Below you’ll find the second installment of “Matt from WithLeather went to Sundance and I didn’t”. If you need me, I’ll be crying.  We can hook back up in the next post.

^{Couldn’t we have given the Mormons New Jersey instead?}

I work from home in solitude and silence.  When people call me, I email them back.  I’m not exactly the kind of person you might call “likely to engage with celebrities” or “personable” or “safe to leave your children with.”  And yet AXE sent me to Sundance to hobnob with famous people and watch movies and stuff, even though I write about sports.  Why me and not this site’s author?  Because Vince touches himself at night, that’s why.

Hey FilmDrunkards, Matt from With Leather here.  For reasons completely beyond my understanding, AXE sent me to the Sundance Film Festival.  And I was given a bunch of free shit, presumably under the pretense that I write something about the free shit.  So, uh, here it is (clockwise from top left):

• World’s most comfortable robe.  I won’t be needing these any more.  **burns pants**
• Divine dark chocolate bar.  Mmmmm… tastes like fair trade.
• Bean digital camera by Argus.  It’s waterproof, so I can finally get good pictures of myself in the shower.
• Xacti digital movie camera by Sanyo.  It’s waterproof, so I won’t be needing these pictures of me showering.  **throws Bean away**
• Givenchy mascara.  I look terrific!
• Notebook and pen.
• Sephora gift bag.  Shut up!  It’s for my mom!
• AXE Detailer.  It hurts my scabs.
• Twenty-year supply of AXE body sprays and shower gels.  I couldn’t turn around in Sundance without knocking one of these bottles over.  It was like they were a foreign animal introduced to an environment with no natural enemies.

Full report of the weekend is on tap for tomorrow.  There might even be some discussion of movies or something.
