okay, i think i fixed this..

WHEW..

here's the scoop..

a week ago, i put a new hard drive and optical drive in my powerbook (i 
do NOT recommend this to anyone who values their sanity whatsoever).. 
reinstalled osx.. and set up the whole machine for development..

BUT..

i forgot to chmod +x .bash_profile

i did that..

and everything now works as it should..

dangit..

thanks for all your help!
