Yeah, I know it's supposed to be easy on a Mac so imagine my frustration...
 I know I'm the cause of the problem, I just don't know what I screwed up
since I'm so new at this...

*ruby -v*
ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i686-darwin9.8.0]

*which ruby*
/usr/local/bin/ruby

*gem -v *
/usr/local/bin/gem:8:in `require': no such file to load -- rubygems
(LoadError)
from /usr/local/bin/gem:8

*which gem*
/usr/local/bin/gem


thanks so much for the assist....
