You probably ought to check the return from show_user(). According to the Net::Twitter documentation:
"When Net::Twitter encounters a Twitter API error or a network error, it throws a Net::Twitter::Error object. You can catch and process these exceptions by using eval blocks and testing $@"
The documentation has examples of how to error-proof your Twitter API calls.
