PEACH BUZZIN’ THE HOOTCH
Thanks to Rich Eldredge at the AJC for giving me a bit of love in Peach Buzz … always appreciative of that as it’s the first section of the paper I read each day.
Dauler’s ‘Earth Day’ tips irritate Seydel
Q100 chief imp Jeff Dauler found himself facing off against Captain Planet himself on Earth Day after the cartoon character’s caretaker caught the radio producer littering on Twitter.
Captain Planet Foundation chairwoman Laura Turner Seydel, who follows Dauler on the addictive Internet site, got a little irritated with Dauler’s increasingly absurd Earth Day “tips” he was posting Wednesday.
His tweets included the following:
“For Earth Day, I took all the copy paper in the office and threw it in the Dumpster so nobody would use paper! GO GREEN!” and “I poured a gallon of bleach into the Chattahoochee! Imagine how clean it would be if everyone did that today. GO GREEN!”
Seydel then posted the following message throughout the Twitter-verse: “@JeffDauler not funny. You will have people standing down by the river ‘cleaning’ it up.”
We’re guessing that Dauler didn’t recall that the Atlanta environmentalist co-founded the Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper Fund advocacy group with her husband Rutherford Seydel.
A chastised Dauler apologized by posting: “For real for Earth Day tips, follow my friend @LauraSeydel and check out her great green tips.”
Laura Seydel immediately recalled a hailstorm-hurling Captain Planet in mid-flight and he resumed work on a backyard compost project.
The last line is my favorite.

Thanks, Rich!









I don’t know how I can possibly be friends with someone who doesn’t take Earth Day seriously. Consider our bro-mance over, Dauler.
