This hack ends up working. Is there a cleaner, ruby trick to getting
this to work?

                        @note = Note.find(params[:id])
                        @note_userid = @note.user_id
                        @current_userid = current_user.id
                        redirect_to(root_path) unless @current_userid == 
@note_userid



thxs!
