Had my own Jeff Overstreet encounter tonight.

That didn't sit well with me, so I fired off the tweet that most accurately
reflected my mind at the moment.

He then quoted Proverbs 24:17 at me in a tweet that he has apparently since
deleted. I looked up the verse, and indeed, it suggests not to gloat when an
enemy falls. But, nuts to that. I would have celebrated Hitler's death as
well, and I am who I am, warts and all. So I responded in this fashion:

@Jeff_Overstreet <http://twitter.com/Jeff_Overstreet> I'm not yet perfect.
